Connect reliably to a 10Gbps network using this ultra slim Cat6a Ethernet cable, ideal for high-density network installations.
Improved Airflow
The Ultra Slim Cat6a Patch Cord is 40% thinner than standard Cat6a Ethernet cables, enabling greater airflow and heat dissipation in confined spaces. It is also more flexible for easier cable routing in crowded network racks and patch panels.
This cable features snagless connectors that protect the RJ45 clips during installation, reducing snags or breakage when routing through narrow gaps or in between devices.
Durable Construction
The Ultra Slim Cat6a Cable features 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts for precise mating and minimal signal loss. Its 4-pair Unshielded Foiled Twisted Pair (U/FTP) design with 34 AWG pure bare copper conductors ensures low resistance and reliable throughput, using pair-level foil shielding to suppress EMI and crosstalk. The flexible TPE jacket provides durability and easy handling for everyday installations. Note: This cable is not rated for PoE applications.
Tested for Reliability
Each cable is individually tested using a Fluke® DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer™ to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2-1 requirements for guaranteed Cat6a performance, ensuring consistent signal integrity with minimal Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Retun Loss (RL). It delivers dependable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance for switches, routers, and other high-speed network devices.
