Icc ICPCSX05BK Cat6a U/ftp Patch Cord 5 Feet

Product Description

The ICC - INT'L CONNECTORS CABLE ICPCSX05BK is a Cat6a U/FTP patch cord measuring 5 feet in length. U/FTP (Unshielded twisted pair with foil-shielded pairs) construction provides per-pair foil shielding that reduces alien crosstalk and supports high-frequency signal integrity. This patch cord is designed for structured cabling environments where Cat6a performance is required, including data centers, server rooms, and enterprise network closets. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cord to connect patch panels, switches, routers, and end devices in both horizontal and backbone cabling systems.

This patch cord is suited for residential and commercial network installations requiring Cat6a-rated performance. Typical applications include connecting active equipment in telecommunications rooms, linking patch panels to network switches, and providing flexible device connections at workstation outlets. The 5-foot length makes it a practical choice for short runs within equipment racks and wall-mounted enclosures.

Key Features

• Cat6a U/FTP construction with foil shielding on individual pairs for crosstalk suppression
• 5-foot length suited for rack-level and short equipment connections
• Supports Cat6a channel performance requirements for high-speed data networks
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cord for Cat6a-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches using standard 8P8C (RJ45) ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. Ensure all connected equipment is powered down or in a safe state before making changes to active network patch fields. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local low-voltage cabling codes when routing and terminating Cat6a cabling. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable jacket, as this can degrade signal performance.
