Microconnect MC-UTP6A10R networking cable Red 10 m Cat6a U/UTP (UTP)

The MicroConnect MC-UTP6A10R is a Cat6a U/UTP networking cable with a length of 10 m designed for high-speed connections up to 10 Gbit/s and bandwidths up to 500 MHz. The cable features RJ-45 connectors with 50 µ" gold-plated contacts, latch protection to reduce the risk of clip breakage, and meter markings on the boot for quick length identification. Its red jacket makes cable routing and identification easier in structured cabling installations.

Advantages

Supports 10 Gbit/s transmission and Cat6a standard performance with up to 500 MHz bandwidth. U/UTP construction lowers external interference while maintaining flexibility. Gold-plated 50 µ" contacts and secure RJ-45 connectors improve signal reliability. Latch protection increases connector durability and meter markings on the boot simplify installation and cable management.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit Ethernet links in offices and data centers
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming and large file transfer
• Structured cabling and rack installations where cable identification is needed

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, or computer) and the other end to the corresponding port. Ensure both connectors click into place to confirm the latch is engaged and the connection is secure. Use the meter markings on the boot to verify the cable length during routing and installation. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension to maintain performance and prolong cable life.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the MicroConnect Cat6a cable in full-duplex 10 Gbit environments and avoid running the cable parallel to power lines to minimise electromagnetic interference. Inspect connectors before use and replace the cable if the latch or contacts are damaged.
