Microconnect V-FTP6A015-SLIM networking cable Grey 1.5 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A015-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 1.5 m Grey is a slim, flexible networking cable designed for high-speed data transfer up to 10000 Mbit/s. With U/FTP (STP) shielding and RJ-45 connectors at both ends, this 1.5 m cable is intended for use in dense rack and cabinet installations where space is limited, while maintaining Cat6a performance and channel link testing up to 500 MHz.

Advantages

The slim design reduces bulk in IT racks and cabinets and improves access for installers. Increased flexibility enables easier routing and quicker connector switching. U/FTP shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference, and improved airflow around slimmer cables can contribute to lower equipment temperatures and reduced downtime risk. Each cable is channel link tested to Cat6a (up to 500 MHz) to ensure compliant performance. A molded snagless boot protects the RJ-45 connector during installation in tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Data center rack and cabinet patching where space is constrained
• High-speed Ethernet connections up to 10 Gbit/s over short runs
• Office and telecom patch panels requiring shielded Cat6a cables
• Installations needing flexible cables for tight bends and frequent reconfiguration

Key specifications

• Length: 1.5 m
• Standard: Cat6a, channel link tested up to 500 MHz
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Shielding: U/FTP (STP)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your networking device (switch, patch panel or NIC) and the other to the corresponding port. Route the slim cable through the rack or cabinet, using cable management accessories as needed. The molded snagless boot helps protect the connector when pulling the cable through tight spaces; avoid excessive force and sharp bends beyond the manufacturer's minimum bend radius to maintain performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a slim cable for short to medium patch runs in rack environments and keep shielded cables properly grounded. Avoid running near high-voltage power lines and follow local installation standards for shielded cabling.
