Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cable

The Cable Leader 14 ft Cat6a Ethernet cable uses 28 AWG bare copper conductors inside a 4.0 mm jacket to deliver 10 GBASE-T performance at 500 MHz. Its red colour makes identification easy in dense racks. Backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e lets it drop into existing RJ45 networks without hardware changes.

High-density rack and data-centre installs

Installers who need maximum cables per rack unit and tight bend radii behind patch panels will benefit from the slim profile and snagless boot. Buyers who require shielded construction for noisy industrial environments or outdoor burial rating should look at something else.

Simple plug-and-play termination

Both ends arrive with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 plugs protected by transparent snagless boots, so the cable seats securely in switches, routers, patch panels and PoE devices. The only common issue is exceeding the 100 m channel limit when combining multiple patch cords in a single run.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 devices do I already need so this 14 ft Cat6a cable can connect them?

You need any two RJ45 ports — on a switch, router, patch panel, keystone jack, PoE device, server or NAS — to plug the cable between them.

Will the 500 MHz Cat6a cable work with my existing Cat6 and Cat5e patch panels?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it drops straight into those panels without changing equipment.

How can I confirm the link is running at 10 Gbps after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC status lights and the OS network adapter speed readout; both should show a 10 Gbps negotiated link.
