Ultra-slim 10GbE patch cable

This 15 ft Cat6a cable uses a 4.0 mm orange jacket and 28 AWG bare copper conductors to deliver 10 Gbps Ethernet up to 100 m at 500 MHz. It is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment, making it a drop-in upgrade for existing RJ45 networks. The slim profile targets high-density patch panels, server racks and data centre cabinets where space and airflow are limited.

Snagless boot eases dense routing

A transparent slim snagless boot protects the locking clip from catching during routing and re-patching in crowded racks. The 4.0 mm outer diameter bends tightly behind dense patch panels without exceeding standard bend radii. Gold-plated 50-micron contacts on the 8P8C plugs resist corrosion and maintain low-resistance connections through repeated mating cycles. No tools or special terminations are required beyond a standard RJ45 port.

Handles 10GBASE-T at full distance

The cable supports 10GBASE-T across the full 100 m Cat6a channel when used with compliant hardware. At 15 ft it leaves ample headroom for patch-panel-to-switch links inside a single rack. The 28 AWG conductors limit power delivery compared with thicker gauges, so high-wattage PoE++ loads may exceed the cable's capacity. It is unshielded UTP, so environments with strong EMI may require shielded alternatives.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 10GBASE-T link is running at 500MHz after plugging in the cable?

Check the switch or NIC status LEDs and the OS network adapter properties; they should report a 10 Gbps link speed, which confirms the Cat6a 500MHz channel is active.

What comes in the box and do I need any extra connectors for a patch panel?

The package contains the single 15ft orange Cat6a patch cable with RJ45 plugs on both ends; no additional connectors are required for standard keystone patch panels.

Should I choose the 28AWG 4.0mm slim version or a thicker cable for my server rack?

The 28AWG 4.0mm slim jacket fits more cables per rack unit, allows tighter bend radii behind dense panels and improves airflow, making it the better choice for high-density racks.
