Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cable for dense racks

This 1-foot Cat6a Ethernet cable uses a 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG bare copper conductors to deliver 10 Gigabit speeds at 500 MHz. The red colour coding helps identify links in crowded patch panels and server cabinets. It is built for high-density environments where space and airflow matter.

Check connector spacing and boot clearance

Verify that your patch panel or keystone jack accepts the slim 4.0 mm diameter and the transparent snagless boot without blocking adjacent ports. Ensure the 1-foot length reaches between your devices without tension. The cable is unshielded UTP, so confirm that your environment does not require shielded cabling.

Ideal for data-center techs managing tight bundles

Network engineers who need more cables per rack unit and better airflow will benefit from the reduced diameter. Installers who require shielded cable, longer runs beyond the 1-foot length, or a different colour scheme should select an alternative product.

Questions about this item

Does the 1ft red Cat6a cable include any adapters or tools, or is it just the patch cord?

The cable is a complete 1ft patch cord with RJ45 plugs on both ends. No adapters, couplers or installation tools are included.

When should I choose this 1ft slim cable instead of a longer or standard-thickness Cat6a lead?

Pick the 1ft length for short rack-to-panel links and the 4.0mm slim jacket when cable density and airflow are priorities in a 100m Cat6a channel.

What does the 500MHz rating mean for real 10GBASE-T throughput on this cable?

The 500MHz bandwidth meets the Cat6a standard, allowing 10GBASE-T to run at full 10Gbps speed over the full 100m channel when installed correctly.
