Renkforce RF-7116930 CAT 6a U/FTP Ultra-Thin Network Patch Cable, RJ45, 2 m, Grey

Experience 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance in a cable that's barely thicker than a strand of spaghetti. The Renkforce RF-7116930 CAT 6a U/FTP patch cable delivers up to 500 MHz bandwidth and 10 Gbps data transfer in an ultra-thin, flexible design that makes dense patch panels and tight cable runs effortless.

Overview

Engineered for high-density networking environments, this 2-metre grey patch cable features 32 AWG stranded copper conductors with gold-plated RJ45 connectors. The U/FTP shielding (foiled twisted pairs with overall unshielded design) provides excellent protection against alien crosstalk while keeping the cable exceptionally slim and easy to route. Fully backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks, it's the ideal choice for connecting PCs, routers, switches, and modems in offices, data centres, or home setups.
