SlimRun Cat6A 10-Pack for Dense Racks

This ten-pack of Monoprice 116331 Cat6A patch cables measures 3.048 metres each and uses 30AWG pure bare copper conductors. The orange jacket and snagless narrow boots are built for high-density racks where standard 23AWG cables would overcrowd pathways. Data centres and telecommunications rooms gain the most from the reduced bulk.

550 MHz UTP Limits in Tight Bundles

The unshielded twisted-pair design is rated to 550 MHz and supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet while remaining backwards compatible with slower networks. In very tight bundles alien crosstalk can become the practical ceiling, so installers should avoid running these cables parallel to power lines or packing them beyond the pathway fill ratios that TIA-568-C.2 and UL 444 assume.

Snagless Boots Simplify First-Time Routing

The 0.118-inch diameter and flexible 30AWG jacket let the cables bend around tight corners without kinking, and the narrow snagless boots release cleanly from crowded patch panels. The main error is exceeding the minimum bend radius during a hurried pull, which can deform the pairs and degrade the 550 MHz margin.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 10-foot 10-pack or a different length for my rack?

This listing is the 3.048-metre (10-foot) length in a 10-pack; other lengths are sold separately, so choose the length that matches your patch-panel-to-switch distance.

Will the 550 MHz rating actually deliver 10 Gbps on my equipment?

The cable is specified to 550 MHz and built for 10-Gigabit Ethernet, so it will support 10 Gbps links provided your switches and NICs also negotiate 10GBASE-T.

Does the 30 AWG gauge limit the distance compared to thicker Cat6A?

At 30 AWG the cable is rated for the full 10-foot channel; the standard 100-metre Cat6A limit applies to 23 AWG, so this shorter run stays within spec.
