Microconnect V-FTP6A01R-SLIM networking cable Red 1 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A01R-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 1m Red is a slim, flexible U/FTP-shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-performance networking. At 1 meter length and supporting data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s, this Cat6a cable is suitable for space-constrained IT racks and cabinets where improved airflow and easy access are important. The cable has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and is channel link tested up to 500 MHz to meet Cat6a performance requirements.

Advantages

The slim construction offers better accessibility in dense patching panels and enables faster switching and rerouting in tight installations. Increased flexibility simplifies installation through limited spaces, and the reduced cable diameter contributes to improved rack airflow, which can lower the risk of equipment overheating or downtime. U/FTP shielding helps protect signals from external interference, and the cable includes a strain-relief feature to reduce connector damage during pull-through installations.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and high-density rack installations
• Server rooms and network cabinets with limited space
• Short-length device connections (1 m) between switches, patch panels and endpoints
• Environments requiring shielded cables to reduce electromagnetic interference

How to use

Route the cable through the rack or cabinet space to the desired ports, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension. Insert the RJ-45 connectors into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, patch panels or devices until the connector latches securely. For installations through confined spaces, use the cable’s flexible jacket and integrated strain-relief to pull the cable without damaging the connector. Verify link status and performance after connection to ensure the Cat6a channel meets required network speeds.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain proper bend radius, avoid running the cable in parallel alongside high-power electrical lines, and use shielded connectors and properly grounded patch panels to preserve the U/FTP shielding effectiveness.
