Microconnect V-FTP6A05W-SLIM networking cable White 5 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A05W-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m White is a 5-meter U/FTP shielded straight-through networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It meets Cat6a channel link testing up to 500 MHz and supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s. The cable features a slim, flexible design and a white outer jacket, making it suitable for space-constrained IT racks and cabinets while maintaining reliable connectivity.

Advantages

The slim, thin construction improves flexibility and accessibility in dense patch panels and crowded cabinet environments, enabling easier routing and faster connector access. U/FTP shielding and Cat6a channel testing up to 500 MHz ensure performance for high-speed network links. The cable includes strain-prevention features on the connector to reduce the risk of damage during installation in tight spaces, and the slim profile helps improve airflow inside racks.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and high-density rack installations
• Office and home network connections requiring Cat6a performance
• Environments where improved airflow and reduced cable bulk are needed

How to use

Route the cable between network devices or into patch panels and insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports until the latch clicks. Use the slim profile to pass the cable through narrow openings and behind equipment more easily. Avoid excessive bending or pulling; secure the cable with appropriate cable management accessories to maintain performance and reduce strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain proper bend radius, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines, and use supported patch panel ports and jacks rated for Cat6a to preserve shielding and channel performance.
