Custom patch cables

This 1000 ft Cat6a stranded bulk cable is designed for installers and IT teams who build custom-length patch cords on site. The 28 AWG stranded conductors make each run easier to pull through tight pathways than standard 24 AWG alternatives.

Thinner profile for dense runs

At 60 percent thinner than typical 24 AWG Cat6a, the cable reduces bundle bulk in crowded racks and cable trays. The CM-rated UL-listed PVC jacket and RoHS-compliant components meet commercial building requirements for in-wall and plenum-adjacent installations.

Termination needs care

Stranded 28 AWG wires demand compatible RJ45 plugs and a precise crimp tool; standard 24 AWG connectors often yield unreliable contacts. The spline separator keeps the four twisted pairs aligned, but installers should verify each termination with a qualified cable tester before closing walls.

Questions about this item

Will I need to replace the RJ45 connectors if I crimp them onto this 28 AWG stranded cable?

Use RJ45 plugs rated for 28 AWG stranded conductors; standard 24 AWG plugs may not seat the thinner wires reliably.

What distance limit appears first when running 10 Gigabit Ethernet over this 1000 ft reel?

The 10 GbE standard caps a single link at 100 m, which is reached well before the 500 MHz bandwidth limit.

How much heat does the CM-rated PVC jacket add when the cable runs at full 10 GbE throughput all day?

Ethernet signalling power is very low, so the jacket temperature rise is negligible in normal indoor installations.
