High-Density Cat6a Patch Cable

The Tripp Lite N261-S01-BK is a 1 ft Cat6a UTP patch cable built for high-density network connections. Its slim profile measures over 38% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, making it easy to route through crowded cable management panels. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs from damage during frequent moves. The 28 AWG stranded copper construction supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 10 Gbps.

Suited for Tight Racks, Not Long Runs

This cable suits administrators patching servers, switches, routers, printers and patch panels inside dense racks where space is at a premium. The short 1 ft length keeps slack to a minimum in adjacent ports. Builders who need longer horizontal runs or outdoor-rated jackets should look at other cable types.

1 ft Length Defines the Use Case

The fixed 1 ft length is the single specification that decides fit. It reaches only between devices sitting side by side in the same rack unit or shelf. Any installation requiring more reach will need a different length.

Questions about this item

Will this 1 ft Cat6a cable fit alongside thicker cables in a crowded patch panel?

The cable is over 38% slimmer than standard Cat6a designs, making it easier to route through high-density cable management panels without blocking adjacent ports.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 10 Gbps after installation?

Run a speed test between two 10 Gbps-capable devices connected by the cable; sustained throughput near 10 Gbps confirms the link is operating at the rated Cat6a performance.

Does the package include any connectors or tools, or is the cable ready to use as-is?

The cable arrives with RJ45 connectors already moulded on both ends, so no separate plugs, crimp tools or keystone jacks are required.
