Leviton Telcom 6AS10-20R Cat6a Ftp Patch Cord 20 Ft Red

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 6AS10-20R is a Category 6A foil-shielded twisted pair (FTP) patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in data centers, server rooms, and commercial network environments. At 20 feet in length, this cord supports high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications and provides the shielding necessary to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) in dense cabling environments. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this patch cord to connect equipment racks, patch panels, and active network hardware where shielded cabling is specified by design or code.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment-room cabling runs in commercial and enterprise network installations. The red jacket color supports color-coded cable management practices common in structured wiring environments. It is appropriate for use in shielded Category 6A cabling systems that require end-to-end FTP continuity from the patch panel through to the connected device.

Key Features

• Category 6A performance rating supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet over structured cabling
• FTP construction with foil shielding to reduce EMI and crosstalk
• 20-foot length provides flexible reach for equipment rack and patch panel connections
• Red jacket aids in color-coded port and circuit identification
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-style replacement and connection patch cord for use with Category 6A shielded patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches that accept RJ45 FTP patch cords.

Installation Notes

This patch cord is installed by low-voltage technicians and network cabling professionals. Ensure that all connected patch panels and equipment ports are rated for Category 6A shielded cabling to maintain system performance. When using shielded patch cords, verify that the cabling system is properly grounded end-to-end, as an ungrounded shield can increase interference rather than reduce it. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for installation practices in commercial environments.
