LogiLink Slim High-Flex Cat.6A U/UTP Patch Cable, 5 m, White

In a busy office or a home network setup, running cables through tight spaces or behind furniture often means wrestling with stiff, bulky wires. This LogiLink Slim High-Flex patch cable changes that: with a 2.8 mm outer diameter and a soft, flexible jacket, it slips easily along skirting boards, through cable ducts, and into crowded patch panels without kinking or snagging. Connect a workstation, access point, or switch and enjoy stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over a 5-metre run.

Why choose it

The slim profile and high-flex jacket make this cable ideal for high-density installations where space is at a premium. It meets Cat.6A performance standards, so you get full 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput without the bulk of traditional shielded cables. The snagless boot protects the locking tab during frequent re-patching, and the white colour blends neatly into modern interiors or helps with colour-coded network management.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting computers, printers, and IP phones to wall outlets in offices
• Linking switches, routers, and patch panels in structured cabling
• Home networking for gaming consoles, smart TVs, and NAS devices
• Data centres and server rooms where cable density and airflow matter
• Temporary setups for events, trade shows, or test benches

Good to know

This cable is U/UTP, meaning it has no overall or per-pair shielding. It is best used in environments with low electromagnetic interference. For industrial settings or areas with heavy EMI, consider a shielded Cat.6A cable instead. The 28 AWG conductors are thinner than standard 24 AWG, which contributes to the slim design but may slightly increase attenuation over very long runs; for lengths beyond 5 metres, verify that your equipment can tolerate the insertion loss. The cable is compliant with TIA/EIA-568-C.2 and is supplied as a single piece.
