Ultra-slim Cat6a patch cord for dense racks

This 1 ft orange Cat6a cable uses a 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG conductors to fit tight spaces in patch panels, server racks and data center cabinets. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts for low-resistance connections. The snagless boot protects the locking clip during frequent re-patching.

10 Gbps at 500 MHz over 100 m

The cable meets the Cat6a standard and supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 metres at 500 MHz. It is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment for a drop-in upgrade. Four twisted pairs of bare copper maintain signal integrity and reduce crosstalk.

Cool, quiet operation in high-density installs

The slim 4.0 mm profile improves airflow around switches and servers compared with standard 6.9 mm cables, helping reduce heat buildup in busy cabinets. With no shielding or active components, the cable adds no noise and draws no power. It is RoHS compliant and carries UL E305668 and ETL verification.

Questions about this item

What does the 500 MHz rating actually deliver once the cable is plugged in?

The 500 MHz bandwidth supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters, giving you a 10 Gigabit wired link without changing existing switches or routers.

How does the RJ45 connector limit speed or distance in practice?

The 8P8C RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts carry the full Cat6a 10GBASE-T signal to 100 meters and stay backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e ports.

Will the 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG wires fit my high-density patch panel?

Yes — the ultra-slim 4.0 mm OD is far thinner than standard 6.9 mm Cat6a cords, so more cables fit per rack unit, bend radii stay tight, and airflow improves in dense cabinets.
