DSIT CAT6a U/UTP 100% Copper Patch Cable 5m Red

For networks where every packet counts, this DSIT CAT6a patch cable delivers full 10-Gigabit throughput without the bulk of shielded alternatives. The 100% copper stranded conductors and gold-plated RJ45 plugs ensure a stable, low-resistance link, while the unshielded U/UTP construction keeps the cable flexible and easy to route in tight spaces. Unlike cheaper copper-clad aluminium (CCA) cables, this 5-metre red cable is built for PoE++ loads and high-density patching, making it a dependable backbone for demanding LAN segments.

Highlights

• CAT6a performance: supports 10GBASE-T up to 500 MHz bandwidth
• 100% pure copper conductors (AWG26 stranded) for superior conductivity and flexibility
• U/UTP unshielded design reduces weight and cost while maintaining signal integrity in low-noise environments
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors (50µm) resist corrosion and ensure consistent contact
• 5-metre length ideal for patch panels, workstations, and device connections
• Backward compatible with CAT6, CAT5e, and CAT5 networks
• Supports PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ for powering devices over the same cable
• Durable PVC jacket with red colour for easy identification

In daily use

This cable excels in structured cabling systems, server rooms, and home offices where reliable high-speed links are non-negotiable. The stranded copper core withstands repeated bending and re-patching without performance degradation, while the snagless boot protects the locking tab during installation. Whether connecting a NAS, gaming PC, or PoE-powered access point, the DSIT CAT6a cable maintains full throughput and stable power delivery. Its red jacket stands out in crowded racks, simplifying troubleshooting and cable management.
