High-density Cat6A patch cable

This 50ft Cat6A cable uses a 30AWG construction that is roughly half the diameter of standard 23AWG Cat6A. The slimmer profile saves space and improves airflow inside crowded server rooms and telecommunications racks. It is built with pure bare copper conductors and carries a CM rating for in-wall use. The black jacket and snagless narrow boots simplify routing in tight pathways.

Check port spacing and length needs

Verify that your switch or patch-panel ports accept the narrower boot design before ordering. Ensure the 50ft run does not exceed the 100 metre channel limit for 10-Gigabit Ethernet when combined with other horizontal and patch cords. Confirm that your existing infrastructure is rated for Cat6A performance to avoid bottlenecks.

Snagless boots and pure copper

The snagless narrow boots prevent latch damage during frequent moves, additions and changes in dense racks. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL Code 444 and TIA-568.2-D fire and safety requirements for communications cables. Backward compatibility with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet protects legacy equipment investments.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need anything else to connect it?

The box contains one Monoprice SlimRun Cat6A 30AWG 50ft Black Ethernet Cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. No additional adapters or tools are required; plug it directly into any standard RJ45 port on a router, switch, patch panel, or network card.

Which length should I choose for a 10-Gigabit run?

This listing is the 50ft version. Cat6A supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 metres, so 50ft is well within the certified distance. If your patch-panel-to-device run is shorter, a smaller coil reduces slack; if it is longer, you would need a longer cable.

What does the 10-Gigabit rating mean once the cable is installed?

It means the cable meets Cat6A performance specifications for 10-Gigabit Ethernet across its full 50ft length. In a real machine you will see full 10 Gb/s throughput provided the switch, NIC, and any intermediate patch panels also support 10GBASE-T and the total channel stays within 100 metres.
