Microconnect V-FTP6A02Y-SLIM networking cable Yellow 2 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A02Y-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 2 m Yellow is a slim, flexible U/FTP (STP) networking cable designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10000 Mbit/s. At 2 meters length and bright yellow finish, it is intended for installations where space is limited in IT racks and cabinets while maintaining Cat6a channel performance up to 500 MHz.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable is thinner and more flexible than standard cables, which improves access in crowded racks and enables quicker switching. The slim profile enhances airflow inside cabinets, helping to reduce thermal issues and potential downtime. The U/FTP (STP) shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for reliable high-speed connections, and the connector strain relief (snagless design) protects the RJ-45 plug during tight installations.

Suitable for

• Server racks and network cabinets with limited space
• High-density patch panels and switch installations
• Office and data centre horizontal and vertical cabling
• Environments requiring shielded Cat6a performance up to 500 MHz

Key specifications

• Manufacturer code (MPN): V-FTP6A02Y-SLIM

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network device (switch, router or workstation) and the other end to the corresponding port or patch panel. Route the cable through the rack or cabinet, taking advantage of its slim, flexible design to pass through tight spaces. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click and avoid sharp bends near the connector to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for Cat6a-rated links and avoid running it parallel to unshielded power cables. Maintain bend radius recommendations typical for Ethernet cabling and verify channel performance when used in critical links.
