Ultra-slim 4.0 mm Cat6a patch cord

This 6 ft white Cat6a Ethernet cable uses 28 AWG bare copper conductors and a 4.0 mm jacket to deliver 10 GBASE-T performance at 500 MHz. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts and transparent snagless boots. The cord is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks and carries UL E305668 and ETL verification.

High-density rack and data-center installs

Network engineers fitting multiple cables per rack unit benefit from the reduced diameter and tighter bend radius. Installations that require the mechanical ruggedness of thicker-gauge conductors should consider a standard-diameter Cat6a cord instead. The unshielded UTP design also suits environments without EMI concerns.

28 AWG conductor gauge

The 28 AWG sizing is the decisive spec: it enables the 4.0 mm jacket that saves space and improves airflow in dense patch panels. Buyers needing the durability of larger-gauge copper for frequent re-patching or harsher handling should select a heavier cable.

Questions about this item

Which length should I pick for a standard rack patch?

The 6 ft length reaches between adjacent rack units and patch panels without excess slack, keeping bundles tidy in high-density cabinets.

What does the 10 Gigabit rating deliver in my switch?

It supports 10GBASE-T at 500 MHz up to 100 m, so a 6 ft run will carry full 10 Gb/s line rate with Cat6a‑class headroom.

How does the 28 AWG slim build affect the RJ45 connection?

The 4.0 mm jacket and 28 AWG conductors terminate in standard 8P8C plugs with 50‑micron gold contacts, fitting any RJ45 port while reducing crosstalk.
