Cable Leader 3ft Cat6a Slim Patch Cable

This Cable Leader 3ft Cat6a Ethernet cable provides a 10 Gigabit wired link in an ultra-slim 4.0 mm gray jacket. It uses 28AWG bare copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The design supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500MHz. It is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks.

High-density rack installs and tight patch panels

The slim profile suits server racks, data center cabinets and dense patch panels where airflow and space are constrained. The snagless boot protects the locking clip during frequent re-patching. Buyers who need shielded cabling for noisy environments should look elsewhere. Installers requiring thicker, more rugged jackets for industrial pulls will prefer a different construction.

Drop-in upgrade for existing RJ45 gear

The cable plugs directly into switches, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks, PoE devices, servers and NAS units. No equipment changes are needed to move from Cat5e or Cat6 to Cat6a performance. The 4.0 mm diameter frees rack units and eases cable management in crowded cabinets. UL (E305668) and ETL verification confirm the build quality.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 devices must I already have to use this 3ft Cat6a patch cable?

Any switch, router, patch panel, keystone jack, PoE device, server or NAS with standard 8P8C RJ45 ports will accept the cable directly.

Will the 4.0mm slim jacket and 28AWG conductors work reliably alongside my existing Cat6 and Cat5e runs?

Yes — the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e at the same 500MHz Cat6a rating, so it drops into mixed installations without re-cabling.

How can I confirm the link is running at the intended 10GBASE-T speed after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC status LEDs and the OS network adapter properties; both should report a 10 Gbps negotiated link when the cable is seated in the gold-plated RJ45 contacts.
