Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cable for dense racks

This 10 ft Cat6a Ethernet cable uses a 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG bare copper conductors to deliver 10 Gigabit speeds at 500 MHz. It fits high-density patch panels, server racks and data centre cabinets where standard 6.9 mm cords would crowd airflow and bend radius. The blue colour helps identify links at a glance.

Drop-in upgrade from Cat6 or Cat5e

The cable supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 m and is fully backward compatible with existing Cat6 and Cat5e infrastructure. Swapping older patch cords for this slim design reclaims rack space and improves cooling without replacing switches, routers or keystone jacks. The jump is worth it whenever density or thermal headroom limits moves, adds and changes.

Snagless boot and gold contacts for reliable routing

Each end carries an 8P8C RJ45 plug with 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a transparent slim snagless boot that protects the locking clip during frequent re-patching. Four twisted pairs reduce crosstalk, while RoHS compliance and UL (E305668) with ETL verification confirm the build quality. It works with PoE devices, NAS and servers using standard RJ45 ports.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the 4.0 mm jacket need behind a patch panel?

The 4.0 mm outer diameter fits tight bend radii behind dense patch panels, leaving more room per rack unit than standard 6.9 mm Cat6a cords.

What is the correct way to seat the RJ45 plugs so the locking clip stays protected?

Push each 8P8C plug straight in until the clip clicks; the transparent slim snagless boot then shields the clip from catching on adjacent cables during routing.

When should the cable be replaced if the gold-plated contacts wear?

The 50-micron gold plating on the RJ45 contacts resists corrosion; replace the patch cord only if a link drops below 10GBASE-T performance or the boot and clip are physically damaged.
