Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 5m Red 10000 Mbit/s

The Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 5m Red is a slim, high-performance Ethernet patch cable intended for data centers, enterprise networks and high-density installations. With a reduced diameter (32 AWG) and LSZH jacket, the 5 m cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at up to 500 MHz while allowing better airflow and neater cable management in crowded racks and patch panels.

Advantages

This Cat.6A U/UTP slim patch cable provides 10GBase-T performance with low crosstalk and limited signal loss thanks to its unshielded twisted pair construction and stranded bare copper conductors. The slim 32 AWG design saves space and improves routing in tight installations, and the molded boots with strain relief increase connector durability during frequent reconfigurations. The cable is RoHS compliant and uses a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH/LSOH) jacket for reduced toxic emissions in case of fire.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and server rooms
• High-density patch panels and cabinet installations
• Office and home network connections requiring compact cabling
• Power over Ethernet (PoE / PoE+) devices

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device or switch and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click. Use the slim cable to route through tight spaces or dense panels, and avoid tight bends that exceed the cable's bend radius to maintain performance. For PoE devices, verify the switch or injector supports the required PoE class.

Recommendations

For sustained 10G performance, minimize exposure to strong electromagnetic interference and keep the cable length within specified limits. Use cable management accessories in high-density racks to prevent excessive bending and strain on connectors.
