Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cord

This five-foot Cat6a cable uses 34 AWG bare-copper conductors and U/FTP shielding to carry up to 10 Gbps Ethernet. Gold-plated snagless RJ45 connectors on each end provide a secure lock without catching on neighbouring ports. The jacket is 40 percent slimmer than standard Cat6a, easing routing in tight racks or panels. At 1.52 metres it is intended for short patch links rather than full channel runs.

Best for dense patching, not for PoE

Installers who need many cables in a narrow cable manager or server backplane will benefit from the reduced diameter. The construction is not rated for Power over Ethernet, so devices that draw power through the data pair should use a different cord. Buyers needing longer horizontal runs or PoE support should look at standard Cat6a or higher-category cables.

34 AWG U/FTP construction decides fit

The 34 AWG foiled twisted-pair design delivers the 40 percent slimmer profile and 10 Gbps headroom in a 5 ft length. If your rack space is crowded and PoE is not required, this specification makes the cord a direct fit; if PoE or longer distances are needed, the same gauge will not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5 ft length or a longer run for my desk setup?

The 5 ft (1.52 m) length suits short patch connections between a switch and a nearby device; choose a longer cable only if the distance exceeds that.

What does the 10 Gbps rating deliver when the cable is plugged into my 10G switch?

It supports the full 10 Gbps throughput of a Category 6a link at the rated distance, provided both endpoints negotiate 10G operation.

How does the U/FTP construction and 34 AWG gauge affect what I can plug it into?

The foiled twisted-pair shielding and 34 AWG conductors meet Cat 6a electrical limits while keeping the cable 40% slimmer for dense patch panels.
