High-Density 10G Patch Cable

This 1-foot Cat6a patch cable delivers 10GBASE-T performance in an ultra-slim 4.0mm jacket built for dense rack environments. It uses 28AWG bare copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts and a transparent snagless boot. The cord is rated to 500MHz, RoHS compliant, and carries UL and ETL verification.

Ideal for Tight Rack Units

Network engineers managing crowded patch panels, server racks or data center cabinets will appreciate the space savings and improved airflow the slim profile provides. It works with switches, routers, keystone jacks, PoE devices, servers and NAS units. Installers who need shielded cabling or a more rugged jacket for industrial pull-through should evaluate alternative constructions.

4.0mm Outer Diameter

The 4.0mm jacket is significantly thinner than standard 6.9mm Cat6a cables, allowing more cables per rack unit and tighter bend radii behind dense panels. This single physical dimension determines whether the cable fits your high-density routing constraints.

Questions about this item

Will this 1ft 28AWG Cat6a cable work with my existing Cat6 and Cat5e patch panels and keystone jacks?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it drops into any RJ45 port on your current patch panels, keystone jacks or switches without changes.

How can I verify the 1ft slim cable is delivering a 10GBASE-T link after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC link lights for a 10 Gbps connection and confirm the negotiated speed in the OS or switch dashboard; the 500 MHz Cat6a rating supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 m.

What comes with the 1ft blue Cat6a cable and do I need separate RJ45 plugs or boots?

The cable arrives terminated with 8P8C RJ45 plugs that have 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a transparent slim snagless boot already fitted; nothing extra is required.
