Icc ICPCSG05BL Cat6a Ftp Patch Cord 5 Feet Blue

Product Description

The ICC - INT'L CONNECTORS CABLE ICPCSG05BL is a Cat6a FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) patch cord designed for structured cabling applications requiring shielded, high-performance copper connectivity. Measuring 5 feet in length and finished in blue for easy identification, this cord supports the bandwidth and alien crosstalk specifications required by Cat6a standards. It is suited for data center, enterprise, and commercial network environments where shielded cabling is necessary to maintain signal integrity and meet installation requirements.

This patch cord is used in horizontal and equipment-bay cabling runs where a shielded Cat6a connection is specified. Typical installations include server rack patch panels, switches, routers, and structured cabling end-points in both commercial and light industrial settings. The blue jacket simplifies port management and cable identification in dense patch environments. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers of this product.

Key Features

• Cat6a performance category supporting up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) construction provides shielding against electromagnetic interference
• 5-foot length suitable for short patch panel and equipment connections
• Blue jacket color aids in cable management and port identification
• Sold individually (each) for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for Cat6a shielded (FTP) structured cabling systems and compatible with Cat6a-rated patch panels, jacks, and network equipment using standard RJ45 shielded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. Power down or place affected ports in an administrative-down state before disconnecting active links where network disruption is a concern. Ensure all connected patch panels and jacks are rated for Cat6a and shielded (FTP or STP) to maintain the full shielding benefit of this cord. Follow TIA-568 cabling standards for proper bend radius and strain relief at termination points.
