DIGITUS CAT 6A F-FTP Slim Patch Cable, 1 m, Grey, 10-Pack, LSZH, 10Gbps

Experience high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with this slim CAT 6A F/FTP patch cable from DIGITUS. Engineered for dense network environments, its ultra-thin 3.6 mm outer diameter and flexible LSZH jacket make cable management effortless while maintaining full 500 MHz bandwidth and reliable data transfer up to 10 Gbps. The cable features gold-plated shielded RJ45 connectors and stranded copper conductors (AWG 28/7) for superior signal integrity and durability. Supplied in a convenient pack of 10 grey cables, each 1 meter long, it is ideal for data centers, server rooms, and structured cabling systems where space is at a premium.

Advantages

This slim patch cable reduces clutter and improves airflow in high-density racks. Its F/FTP shielding (foiled twisted pairs with overall foil) provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and alien crosstalk, ensuring stable 10GBASE-T performance. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety by emitting low smoke and no toxic halogens in case of fire. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain optimal conductivity over thousands of mating cycles. With PoE support up to 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3bt), it can deliver power to devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without separate power cables.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring high-density, high-speed cabling
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (10GBASE-T) over distances up to 1 meter
• PoE applications including PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE (up to 100W)
