Wentronic RJ-45 CAT6a 20m U/UTP Network Patch Cable, Gold-Plated Connectors, Male to Male, 10 Gbps, 500 MHz, Copper, Stranded, TIA/EIA-568B 96389

In a busy office, a network engineer runs a new drop to a workstation 20 meters from the switch. This Wentronic CAT6a patch cable delivers a stable 10 Gigabit link, ensuring smooth video conferencing and large file transfers. Its unshielded twisted pair design keeps the cable flexible and easy to route through cable trays and around corners, while the gold-plated RJ-45 connectors resist corrosion for reliable connectivity over time.

Key specifications

• Length: 20 m
• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Connectors: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male, gold-plated
• Data transfer rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE)
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Conductor material: Copper, stranded
• Wiring standard: TIA/EIA-568B

Why choose it

This cable supports 10GbE speeds up to 100 meters, making it ideal for demanding network environments. The stranded copper conductors provide flexibility, reducing the risk of breakage during installation. Gold-plated contacts ensure low contact resistance and long-term performance. The U/UTP construction is cost-effective and suitable for most indoor applications without high electromagnetic interference.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting computers to network switches in offices
• Linking servers to patch panels in data centers
• Extending network connections in home offices
• Connecting IP cameras or access points

Good to know

The cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks. It is not designed for outdoor use or direct burial. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling. The U/UTP design is not shielded, so avoid running it parallel to power lines for long distances to prevent interference. This cable is a reliable choice for standard indoor networking needs.
