first of all,  do you have any 10 gigabit devices. 

 

if you are from the US check out Monoprice

Why do you need CAT 6A?

 

Are you running 10G networking?

 

 

Where are you located?

If you are not using 10GbE I would recommend Cat5e, much more cost effective.

Yep, that's why I said IFF you don't need that much.

 

Cost per foot is definitely higher for the 100m I linked.

Unless the RJ45 connectors are not on correctly or the cable is damaged its very unlikely the problem is the cable. Have you tested your ping to another device on your local network?
