Icc ICPCSX01BK Cat6a U/ftp Patch Cord 1 Foot

Product Description

The ICC - INT'L CONNECTORS CABLE ICPCSX01BK is a Cat6a U/FTP patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. U/FTP construction pairs unshielded twisted pair conductors with foil shielding around each pair, providing strong crosstalk rejection and improved signal integrity at high data rates. At 1 foot in length, this cord is suited for short-run connections between patch panels, switches, and adjacent network equipment. Installation is typically handled by low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure professionals.

This patch cord is intended for use in data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and office network installations where high-frequency performance and noise isolation are required. The short 1-foot length is well suited for high-density patch panel environments where cable management and signal integrity are both critical. Cat6a performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications up to 100 meters, making it a practical choice for modern network builds and upgrades.

Key Features

• Cat6a U/FTP construction with individual pair foil shielding for enhanced crosstalk and EMI rejection
• 1-foot length designed for short-run, high-density patch panel and switch connections
• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications in structured cabling systems
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity ordering for cable management projects

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cord for Cat6a-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches using standard RJ45 connections.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians typically handle installation of structured cabling patch cords in accordance with TIA-568 standards. No tools are required for insertion, but cable management accessories should be used to maintain proper bend radius and avoid kinking the foil shielding. Power to active equipment such as switches and routers does not need to be interrupted to replace a patch cord, but confirm port status before disconnecting active network links in live environments.
