Slim Cat6a patch cable for dense racks

This 4 ft Cat6a Ethernet cable uses a 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG conductors to fit more links per rack unit. It is built for patch panels, server racks and data center cabinets where space and airflow are tight. The blue colour aids quick visual identification during moves, adds and changes.

Practical limits of the Cat6a standard

The cable supports 10GBASE-T at 500 MHz up to 100 m on the Cat6a standard. Backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e lets it drop into existing RJ45 infrastructure without equipment changes. Unshielded UTP construction means it is not suited for environments with strong electromagnetic interference.

Check your existing setup before ordering

Verify that 28 AWG conductors meet the voltage-drop limits of any PoE devices you plan to power. Confirm the 4.0 mm diameter clears the port spacing on your patch panel or keystone jack. Ensure the 4 ft length reaches between your rack-mounted gear without strain.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 4 ft blue Cat6a cable or a longer length for my rack?

The 4 ft length suits short patch-panel runs; select a longer cable only if the distance between devices exceeds 4 ft.

What does the 500 MHz rating mean once the cable is installed?

It guarantees the bandwidth needed for 10GBASE-T at up to 100 m, so the 4 ft patch cord will not limit 10 Gigabit speeds.

Is the RJ45 connector standard 8P8C and does the 28 AWG gauge cap PoE power?

Yes, it uses standard 8P8C RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts; 28 AWG handles typical PoE loads within the Cat6a specification.
