Microconnect MC-UTP6A03 networking cable Grey 3 m Cat6a U/UTP (UTP)

The MicroConnect MC-UTP6A03 is a 3 m Cat6a networking cable designed for high-speed data transfer up to 10000 Mbit/s and bandwidths to 500 MHz. It uses U/UTP construction to reduce interference and comes with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors and meter marking on the boot for easy length identification.

Advantages

This Cat6a patch cable supports 10Gbit networks and high bandwidth applications, features 50µ" RJ45 contacts for improved connectivity and gold plating for better conductivity, and includes latch protection to reduce the risk of clip breakage. The cable is lightweight and colour-coded in grey for easy organisation.

Suitable for

• Data centre and server room interconnects
• High-speed LAN installations (10Gbit)
• Workstations and switches requiring Cat6a performance
• Structured cabling in offices and commercial environments

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, NIC) and the other RJ-45 end to the corresponding port on the other device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Use the metre markings on the boot to confirm cable length during installation and route the cable to avoid excessive bending or tight loops.

Recommendations

For reliable 10Gbit performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radius recommendations from the installer. Inspect the latch protection before deployment and replace the cable if contacts are bent or the jacket is damaged.
