Black Box 7ft CAT6A 650-MHz Locking Shielded Patch Cable (Black)

The Black Box C6APC80S-BK-07 is a seven foot Category 6A patch cable that delivers up to 10 Gbps throughput and 650 MHz bandwidth for voice, data, audio, video, and Power over Ethernet links. It suits environments where every packet counts, from an office switch panel to an industrial control cabinet.

Full shielding blocks electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, so signals remain clear even when the cable runs alongside power lines or noisy machinery. Inside each connector, 50 micron gold plated contacts maintain a clean, low resistance path that keeps performance consistent over time.

The cable is rated for 750 insertion and extraction cycles, which means you can reconfigure racks or workstations without worrying about wear. Its snagless jacket glides through tight conduits and crowded patch panels, minimizing damage to neighboring cables during installation.

For ports that must stay connected, the patented LockPORT boot lets you attach an optional locking pin or block, preventing accidental unplugging and discouraging tampering in public areas such as classrooms, kiosks, and shared conference rooms.

Whether you are wiring a data center spine, extending PoE to ceiling mounted access points, or hooking up a streaming encoder at a live event, this cable offers the balanced mix of speed, protection, and physical security that modern networks demand.
