Ultra-slim 4.0 mm Cat6a patch cable

This eight-foot orange cable meets the Cat6a standard and uses 28 AWG bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a transparent snagless boot. The 4.0 mm outer diameter is far thinner than typical 6.9 mm Cat6a cords. It is UL and ETL verified and RoHS compliant.

High-density racks and tight patch panels

The slim profile suits server cabinets, patch panels and data centres where many cables share limited space and airflow matters. It supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 metres at 500 MHz and works with existing Cat6 and Cat5e gear. Installers who need shielded cable or a heavier gauge for long outdoor runs should choose a different construction.

10 Gigabit headroom over standard distances

At 500 MHz the cable comfortably carries 10 Gbps across the full 100 metre channel allowed by the standard. The eight-foot length leaves ample margin for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server links. Beyond the rated distance or in electrically noisy environments without shielding, signal quality will degrade.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 devices do I need to connect with this 8 ft Cat6a cable?

Any switch, router, patch panel, keystone jack, PoE device, server or NAS with an RJ45 port will link directly.

Will this 4.0 mm slim cable work in my existing Cat6 or Cat5e patch panel?

Yes — it is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it drops into current RJ45 infrastructure without changes.

How can I verify the link is running at 10 Gigabit after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC status lights and OS network adapter settings; a negotiated 10 Gbps link confirms the 500 MHz Cat6a cable is performing as specified.
