15 ft Cat6a patch cable

This 15-foot Cat6a UTP patch cord uses RJ45 male connectors on both ends to link printers, computers, copiers, routers, servers, modems, hubs and switches. It is built for high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks in data centres and network closets. The blue jacket provides simple colour coding in crowded racks. It suits installers who need a slim, unshielded run for standard gigabit and 10G links.

Slim profile for dense installations

The cable diameter is more than 38% smaller than standard Cat6a, which improves airflow in tight spaces and reduces clutter around patch panels. This slender build makes routing around corners and through cable management panels easier during deployment. It supports sustained 10G transmission without the bulk that restricts airflow in fully populated racks. The design targets high-density environments where space is at a premium.

Snagless connectors and UTP construction

Moulded snagless boots protect the RJ45 locking tabs from catching during pulls, which helps maintain a reliable connection over repeated moves. As an unshielded twisted-pair cable, it carries no grounding requirement and keeps weight low for overhead tray runs. The PVC jacket meets typical flame ratings for in-room use. It is not suited for outdoor burial or applications that demand shielded or plenum-rated cable.

Questions about this item

Does the slim Cat6a design run cooler in a packed rack?

The cable is 38 percent smaller in diameter than standard Cat6a, which increases airflow in tight spaces and helps equipment stay cool during continuous operation.

What devices must I already have to use this cable?

You need two pieces of equipment with RJ45 ports — such as a computer, router, switch, server, printer, copier, modem or hub — to connect with the male RJ45 plugs on each end.

Will this 15 ft Cat6a cable work with my older Cat5e patch panel?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors are backward compatible, so the cable will link to Cat5e or Cat6 ports, though the link will negotiate at the lowest common speed supported by both sides.
