Microconnect V-UTP6A20B-SLIM networking cable Blue 20 m Cat6a U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect V-UTP6A20B-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m Blue is a slim, flexible Cat6a network cable designed for space-conscious installations in server racks and network cabinets. It uses U/UTP construction with RJ-45 connectors and is suitable for high-speed data transmission up to the Cat6a standard. The cable is 20 m long, blue, and intended for straight-through connections between network equipment.

Advantages

The slim design reduces cable bulk and improves airflow in racks and cabinets while the flexible jacket enables easier routing and access in tight spaces. The cable is tested to Cat6a performance (up to 500 MHz) and remains backward compatible with Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 networks. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide reliable contact and the reinforced connector strain relief helps protect the plug during installation in confined areas.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and switch-to-device connections in dense rack environments
• Office and home network installations where space is limited
• Structured cabling in server rooms and cabinets

How to use

Route the Microconnect slim Cat6a cable through rack cable management or along cable trays to connect switches, patch panels and network devices. Insert RJ-45 plugs fully into corresponding jacks until the latch clicks. Use the flexible jacket to make tight turns without stressing the connector and avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius. Verify link status on connected devices to confirm the connection.

Recommendations

For best performance, maintain proper cable separation from power lines, avoid excessive pulling force when installing through confined spaces, and ensure both ends are connected to Cat6a-compatible ports for full Cat6a bandwidth. The cable is backward compatible with Cat6/Cat5e/Cat5 devices when needed.
