Ultra-slim 10 Gigabit patch cable
The Cable Leader 50ft Cat6a Ethernet Cable is a green RJ45 patch cord built to the Cat6a standard for 10GBASE-T performance up to 100 meters at 500MHz. Its 28AWG bare copper conductors and 4.0mm jacket make it a drop-in upgrade for existing Cat6 or Cat5e networks. It suits administrators wiring high-density patch panels, server racks and data center cabinets.
Fits dense racks without blocking airflow
The 4.0mm outer diameter is far thinner than standard 6.9mm Cat6a cords, so more cables fit per rack unit and bend radii stay tight behind crowded panels. This frees space for better airflow across switches and servers while keeping moves, adds and changes quick. It connects directly to switches, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks, PoE devices, servers and NAS units.
Gold-plated contacts and snagless boot
Each end carries 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections and reduced crosstalk. A transparent slim snagless boot protects the locking clip from snags during routing and re-patching, keeping dense bundles tidy. The cable is RoHS compliant and carries UL (E305668) and ETL verification.

Questions about this item
How far can I run this 28AWG Cat6a cable at 10 Gigabit without losing speed?
The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500MHz, so the full 50ft length is well within the rated distance.
Will the slim 4.0mm jacket and 28AWG conductors run hotter or draw more power in a packed server rack?
The thinner jacket improves airflow around dense bundles, helping switches and servers stay cooler; the cable itself carries only data and PoE, adding no measurable heat or power draw.
My patch panel uses standard keystone jacks — will the 4.0mm snagless boots fit without blocking adjacent ports?
Yes, the transparent slim snagless boot is designed for high-density panels and keystone jacks, protecting the clip while keeping neighbouring ports accessible.
