Slim 10G patch cable for dense racks

This 50-foot Cat6a cable delivers 10 Gigabit Ethernet in a 4.0 mm jacket that is far thinner than standard 6.9 mm cords. It is built for high-density patch panels, server racks and data center cabinets where space and airflow are at a premium. The 28 AWG bare copper conductors and 500 MHz rating support 10GBASE-T up to 100 metres while remaining backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment.

Passive cable with no active cooling

The unshielded UTP construction has no fan or power draw, so it adds no noise or heat to the installation. Its slim profile improves airflow around switches and servers, helping to reduce heat build-up in busy data center and server room deployments. Gold-plated contacts keep resistance low without requiring any external power.

Snagless boot eases daily moves

Transparent slim snagless boots protect the locking clips from catching during routing and re-patching, keeping dense bundles tidy. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 plugs on both ends provide corrosion-resistant connections for switches, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks, PoE devices, servers and NAS units. UL (E305668) and ETL verification plus RoHS compliance confirm the build quality.

Questions about this item

How do I route the 4.0 mm slim Cat6a cable through a high-density patch panel without snagging the locking clip?

The transparent slim snagless boot covers the clip so the 28AWG cord slides past neighbouring patch cables; push the boot fully home until the clip clicks.

Will the 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts need cleaning or re-termination over time?

Gold plating resists corrosion; the contacts are rated for the life of the cable and do not require periodic cleaning or re-termination under normal indoor use.

At what distance does the 500 MHz Cat6a link drop below 10 Gbit/s during sustained traffic?

The Cat6a standard guarantees 10GBASE-T up to 100 metres; this 50 ft run stays well within that limit, so sustained throughput remains at 10 Gbit/s.
