Network Cable Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 3.0m Blue

The Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 3.0m in blue is a slim-profile Ethernet patch lead designed for data centers, enterprise networks and high-density installations. With a 3.0 m length and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this Cat6A U/UTP cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at up to 500 MHz while keeping a reduced diameter for improved cable management and airflow.

Advantages

The slim 32 AWG construction offers space-saving routing in crowded racks and patch panels without sacrificing performance for 10GBase-T links. Unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) design delivers low crosstalk in typical office and server-room electromagnetic conditions, while stranded bare copper conductors provide flexibility for frequent moves and reconfigurations. The cable features molded boots with strain relief, LSZH jacket and compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 and RoHS standards.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers and server rooms
• High-density patch panels and cable trays where space is limited
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones, access points and cameras
• Office and enterprise network connections (switch-to-switch, switch-to-server, patch-to-equipment)

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your switch, patch panel or device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the slim cable through cable management channels or trays to maintain airflow and avoid tight bends; the stranded conductor construction allows flexible routing and repeated reconnections.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or strong EMI sources. Use appropriate patch panel ports and maintain bend radii as recommended for Cat6A cabling; for PoE applications ensure the power budget of your injector or switch matches device requirements.
