Network Cable Intellinet Cat6a 10G STP Keystone-Module 0.5m Blue

The Intellinet Cat6a 10G STP Keystone-Module 0.5m Blue is a short patch cable designed for high-performance network connections in structured cabling environments. Built with shielded twisted pairs and a keystone-compatible connector, this 0.5 meter cable supports 10 Gbps data rates and is suitable for use where reduced electromagnetic interference and compact, panel-mounted terminations are required. The compact keystone format allows easy installation into standard wall plates and patch panels while maintaining the physical and electrical requirements of Cat6a cabling.

Advantages

The shielded construction minimizes crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity for high-bandwidth applications. Its Cat6a specification supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and is backward-compatible with lower-speed Ethernet standards. The keystone-module design simplifies mounting into wall plates and patch panels, providing a tidy and secure connection point. The short 0.5 m length reduces cable clutter in dense installations and helps maintain consistent performance in rack and workstation setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting keystone wall plates to patch panels or switches in office and data center racks
• Short runs between network equipment where shielded connections are required
• Environments with significant electromagnetic interference (near power lines, fluorescent lighting, or industrial equipment)
• PoE deployments that need stable power and data transmission

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbps
• Shielding: Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector format: Keystone-module compatible
• Color: Blue
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• Typical use frequency: up to 500 MHz

How to use

Insert the keystone-module end into a compatible keystone wall plate or patch panel until it locks into place. On the opposite end, connect to the switch, patch panel port, or network device as required. Ensure the shield termination is properly connected to the panel grounding point when used in shielded installations to preserve the effectiveness of the STP design. Avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on the cable; route the cable with gentle curves and secure it to prevent movement that could affect connections.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable in well-terminated patch panels and wall plates with proper grounding for shielded systems. Keep runs short where possible to reduce latency and maintain signal integrity; this 0.5 m keystone-module is intended for short patching or panel-to-faceplate connections. Verify compatibility with existing keystone mounts before installation and avoid running shielded cables parallel to large power conductors without adequate separation.
