Ubiquiti Unifi Premium Patch Cable Outdoor C6a 12m white

When your UniFi access point is mounted on a pole outside the warehouse and the switch is inside, you need a cable that can handle rain, UV, and 10 Gbps without flinching. The Ubiquiti UniFi Outdoor Cat6a Premium Patch Cable is that cable—12 meters of solid copper, foil-shielded, and wrapped in a UV-resistant jacket. It’s built for direct burial and harsh environments, so you can run it along a fence or under a deck without conduit. The white color blends into light exteriors, and the RJ45 connectors are pre-terminated for plug-and-play installs. Whether you’re linking a camera at the gate or an AP on the patio, this cable delivers full 10GBASE-T with PoE support to power your devices.

Why choose it

This cable is engineered for reliability in extreme conditions. The solid copper conductors minimize signal loss over distance, while the foil shield blocks electromagnetic interference from nearby power lines or equipment. The UV-resistant jacket prevents cracking and fading from sun exposure, and the cable is rated for direct burial, so you can install it underground without extra protection. It’s tested to work seamlessly with all UniFi devices, ensuring consistent performance for high-bandwidth applications like 4K video streaming and large file transfers.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting outdoor UniFi access points, such as the UAP-AC-M or U6 Mesh, to indoor switches.
• Linking IP security cameras mounted on building exteriors or poles.
• Extending network connectivity to outbuildings, sheds, or remote gates.
• Deploying temporary outdoor networks for events or construction sites.
• Powering PoE devices like VoIP phones or sensors in covered outdoor areas.

Good to know

The cable comes in a 12-meter length, which is ideal for most residential and small business outdoor runs. If you need a different length, Ubiquiti offers other sizes in the same series. The white jacket is not paintable, but it can be concealed with cable raceways if aesthetics are a concern. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and use cable clips rated for outdoor use. This cable is RoHS compliant and backed by Ubiquiti’s quality standards.
