Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cable

The Cable Leader 1ft Cat6a Ethernet cable is a white, unshielded UTP patch cord built to the Cat6a standard with 28AWG bare copper conductors. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a transparent snagless boot. The 4.0mm jacket is far thinner than typical 6.9mm Cat6a cables, making it suitable for high-density patch panels, server racks and data centre cabinets.

Dense rack integration

The slim 4.0mm diameter allows more cables per rack unit and tighter bend radii behind crowded patch panels. Improved airflow around switches and servers helps manage heat in busy data centre and server room deployments. Backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e means it drops into existing RJ45 infrastructure without equipment changes. It works with switches, routers, keystone jacks, PoE devices, servers and NAS units.

Sustained 10GBASE-T throughput

Rated for 10GBASE-T up to 100 metres at 500MHz, the cable maintains signal integrity over long runs rather than only short bursts. Four twisted pairs and gold-plated contacts reduce crosstalk and contact resistance during continuous high-speed traffic. RoHS compliant with UL (E305668) and ETL verification, it is built for reliable operation in permanent installations.

Questions about this item

How far can this 1ft Cat6a cable run at 10 Gigabit speed?

The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500MHz; this 1ft patch cord is designed for short rack connections within that channel.

Does the slim 4.0mm jacket get warm or affect airflow when cables are packed in a rack all day?

The 4.0mm outer diameter improves airflow in dense patch panels and server racks compared to standard 6.9mm cables, helping reduce heat buildup.

Will the 28AWG conductors and gold-plated RJ45 plugs work with my existing PoE switches and patch panels?

Yes, the bare copper 28AWG twisted pairs and 50-micron gold-plated 8P8C contacts are built for PoE devices, switches, routers and keystone jacks.
