Ultra-slim 10 Gigabit patch cable

This 12 ft Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired connection in a 4.0 mm orange jacket that is far thinner than standard 6.9 mm Cat6a cords. It is built for high-density patch panels, server racks and data center cabinets where space and airflow matter. The 28 AWG bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts provide reliable signal integrity with reduced crosstalk. It supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz.

Fits dense racks without crowding

The slim 4.0 mm profile lets more cables fit per rack unit and keeps bend radii tight behind dense patch panels. This improves airflow across switches and servers, reducing heat in busy data center and server room deployments. A transparent slim snagless boot protects the locking clip during routing and re-patching, keeping dense bundles tidy. It terminates with standard 8P8C RJ45 plugs for universal compatibility.

Handles 10GBASE-T at full distance

The cable meets the Cat6a standard for 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz, so it comfortably handles 10 Gigabit links across standard rack rows. It is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e for drop-in upgrades without changing existing equipment. The unshielded UTP construction suits typical indoor patch-panel and server connections. It is not suited for outdoor runs, direct burial or environments that require shielded or industrial-grade jacketing.

Questions about this item

How far can this Cat6a cable run at 10 Gbps before signal loss becomes the limiting factor?

The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz, so this 12 ft cable is well within the distance limit for full 10 Gigabit performance.

Does the slim 4.0 mm jacket affect heat buildup when the cable is bundled in a rack all day?

The thinner 28 AWG design improves airflow in high-density patch panels and server racks, helping reduce heat buildup during continuous operation compared to standard 6.9 mm cables.

What equipment must I already have for this cable to work at 10 Gigabit speeds?

You need network devices with RJ45 ports that support 10GBASE-T, such as compatible switches, routers, servers or NAS units; the cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e ports at lower speeds.
