Patch cable InLine Cat.6A S/FTP TPE (LSZH) PoE slim, flexible, white, 0.3 m

The InLine Patch cable Cat.6A S/FTP TPE (LSZH) PoE slim, flexible, white, 0.3 m is a short, high-performance patch cable designed for dense installation environments. With full Cat.6A transmission capability up to 500 MHz and 10 Gbit/s performance over supported distances, the slim assembly with AWG28 conductors and S/FTP shielding provides reliable data transmission and reduced interference in patch panels, switches and routers where space is limited.

Advantages

This slim Cat.6A cable saves space compared with conventional AWG26 or thicker cables, enabling up to approximately 40% greater port density in network cabinets and improved airflow. It uses high-quality pure copper conductors to minimize signal loss and maintain full Cat.6A performance. The cable supports PoE up to 87 watts (4PPoE) for powering devices such as IP cameras, access points and VoIP phones without separate power supplies. The TPE sheath is LSZH-rated, offering flame retardance and low smoke in confined or safety-critical environments. Material-efficient design also reduces resource use and transportation footprint.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• High-density patching in network cabinets and server racks
• Short patch connections between switches, patch panels and routers
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links and 10GBase-T compatible equipment within supported lengths
• Power over Ethernet installations requiring up to 87 W (4PPoE)
• Installations with limited cable routing space or where improved airflow is desired

When it may not be suitable

This 0.3 m cable is intended for short patching and is not a replacement for permanent horizontal cabling over long distances; for runs beyond the supported lengths, use structured cabling designed for the required distance. The slim design optimizes port density but may not be necessary for installations where space is not a concern or where thicker cables are already standardized across the facility.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.3 m
• Connector 1 / Connector 2: RJ-45 / RJ-45 (straight male)
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T, Cat.6A
• Shielding: S/FTP (foil-braided pair and overall shielding)
• Conductor material and gauge: pure copper, AWG28
• Supported bandwidth: up to 500 MHz
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (within standard limitations)
• PoE capability: supports up to 87 W (4PPoE)
• Sheath material: TPE, LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Operating temperature range: -20 °C to +75 °C
• Outer diameter: approximately 4.5 mm
• Weight: 0.012 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the switch, patch panel or router port and the other plug to the corresponding device port to create a short, reliable link. Ensure both endpoints are configured for the required speed and PoE settings if powering devices. Route the cable through available vertical or horizontal cable channels, taking advantage of the slim profile to maintain airflow and avoid tight bends below the specified minimum bend radius. For best performance, follow standard TIA/EIA wiring practices and maintain 1:1 wiring according to T568B where applicable.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended application: short patch connections vs. permanent horizontal cabling
• Required PoE power level and device compatibility (supports up to 87 W, 4PPoE)
• Compatibility with existing panel/switch port density and connector type (RJ-45)
• Environmental requirements: LSZH jacket for low smoke and flame retardance
• Required cable length—this product is 0.3 m for short connections

Usage recommendations

Use this slim Cat.6A S/FTP patch cable for short, high-density connections in racks and cabinets where space and airflow are important. Avoid excessive bending and maintain standard termination practices to preserve 10GBase-T performance and reliable PoE delivery.
