Microconnect V-FTP6A015R-SLIM networking cable Red 1.5 m Cat6 U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A015R-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6 1.5m Red is a slim, flexible Cat6a networking cable designed for space-constrained IT racks and cabinets. This 1.5 m straight-through cable features U/FTP (STP) shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and channel performance tested to 500 MHz.

Advantages

The slim design and increased flexibility provide better accessibility in dense installations, making routing and swapping cables quicker and easier. U/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for more stable connections. Thinner cables also improve airflow within racks and cabinets, which helps lower the risk of equipment overheating and potential downtime. A molded snagless boot protects the connector when pulling the cable through tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and high-density rack installations
• Server rooms and data centres with limited cable space
• Workstation and switch connections requiring Cat6a performance
• Short runs between network devices (1.5 m)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the patch panel or device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable through cable management paths in the rack or tray, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension. Use the slim profile to optimize space and airflow in dense installations.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6a cable for short patch connections within racks and cabinets. Keep cable runs within the recommended length for Ethernet and avoid running parallel to large power cables to minimize interference.
