Icc ICPCSG03BL Cat6a Ftp Patch Cable 3 Feet Blue

Product Description

The ICC ICPCSG03BL is a Cat6a FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) patch cable measuring 3 feet in length with a blue jacket. Designed to support high-speed structured cabling installations, this cable delivers the shielded performance required by Cat6a standards, including bandwidth support up to 500 MHz and data rates suitable for 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications. The foil shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, making it appropriate for environments where signal integrity is a priority. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable to connect switches, patch panels, and end devices in both horizontal and vertical cabling runs.

This patch cable is suited for use in commercial and residential structured cabling environments. At 3 feet, it is a common length for rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch connections inside server rooms, telecommunications closets, and equipment racks. It is also used at workstation drops where a short run is needed between a wall jack and a desktop device or access point.

Key Features

• Cat6a rating supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet over full 100-meter horizontal runs when used with a compliant cabling system
• FTP construction provides foil shielding around all four pairs to reduce EMI and alien crosstalk
• 3-foot length designed for short patch runs inside racks, closets, and equipment bays
• Blue jacket for color-coded cable management and easy visual identification
• Sold as a single unit, ready for immediate installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cord for Cat6a FTP structured cabling systems using shielded RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. When used in a shielded cabling system, ensure all connected hardware including patch panels and jacks is also rated and terminated for FTP to maintain continuity of the shield. Avoid sharp bends tighter than the cable minimum bend radius, and do not staple or pinch the cable during routing. Power down or disconnect active equipment ports before seating or removing patch cords where sensitive equipment is involved.
