Ultra-Slim 7 ft Cat6a Patch Cable

The Cable Leader 7ft Cat6a Ethernet Cable is a 10 Gigabit LAN patch cord built for high-density racks and patch panels. Its 4.0 mm outer diameter and 28 AWG bare copper conductors save space and improve airflow in server cabinets and data center rows. Backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, it drops into any existing RJ45 network without hardware changes.

10GBASE-T at 500 MHz Over 100 m

Rated to the Cat6a standard, the cable supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz across four twisted pairs. The slim 28 AWG gauge keeps bend radii tight behind dense patch panels while maintaining signal integrity. Runs longer than 100 m or speeds beyond 10 Gbit/s exceed the rated headroom and need a higher category link.

50-Micron Gold Contacts and Snagless Boot

Each RJ45 plug carries 50-micron gold-plated contacts for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections and reduced crosstalk. A transparent slim snagless boot protects the locking clip during routing and re-patching in crowded bundles. The cable is RoHS compliant and carries UL (E305668) and ETL verification for safety and performance assurance.

Questions about this item

Will this 7ft Cat6a cable work with my existing Cat6 patch panel and Cat5e router?

Yes, the Cat6a standard is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it will drop straight into your current RJ45 patch panel and router without any changes.

How can I verify the 10GBASE-T link is running at 500MHz after I plug it in?

Check the switch or server port status — it should show a 10 Gbps link speed and the connection will negotiate at the Cat6a 500MHz rating automatically.

Does the box include any keystone jacks or PoE injectors, or is it just the cable?

Only the 7ft black Cat6a patch cable with RJ45 plugs and snagless boots is supplied; keystone jacks, PoE injectors and other accessories must be purchased separately.
