LOGILINK Slim High-Flex Patch Cable Cat6A U/UTP 20m white, 2.8mm flexible jacket

LOGILINK Slim High-Flex Patch Cable Cat6A U/UTP — 20 m, white, with a 2.8 mm flexible jacket provides a compact, highly flexible connection cable for structured cabling and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The extra-slim diameter and shortened connectors reduce cable volume in crowded patch panels and server cabinets while the soft TPE jacket and bare copper conductors ensure good flexibility and reliable signal transmission for high-speed networks.

Advantages

The slim 2.8 mm diameter and extra short RJ-45 plugs minimise space usage and improve airflow in racks and patch panels. A softer, more flexible jacket and a robust bend protection reduce strain on the conductor and help prevent breakage. The cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Power over Ethernet and uses bare copper conductors with gold-plated contacts for stable connectivity. The cable is flame-retardant, low-smoke and halogen-free, and comes without plastic packaging.

Suitable for

• High-density patch panels and server cabinets where space is limited
• Office workstations and home networks requiring flexible routing
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections and PoE devices
• Environments that benefit from reduced cable bulk and improved airflow

When it may not be suitable

This slim U/UTP Cat6A cable is not shielded, so it may not be the best choice in environments with strong electromagnetic interference where an STP/FTP cable would be preferable. It is designed primarily for patching and short to medium-length connections; for long backbone runs you may prefer cables specified for longer permanent links or installed as part of structured cabling with appropriate certification.

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network switch, patch panel or router and the other to the target device such as a PC, access point or PoE device. Route the slim cable through dense patch fields or along cable trays to save space and improve airflow. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable's bending radius and secure the cable gently to prevent strain on the connectors.

What to consider before purchase

• Check whether a shielded cable is required in your environment to protect against electromagnetic interference.
• Confirm that 20 m is an appropriate length for the intended connection to avoid excessive slack or the need for extensions.
• Verify that Cat6A performance and PoE support meet your device and network requirements.

Usage recommendations

For best results use this slim Cat6A patch cable for short to medium-length patching in high-density racks and office setups; avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force when routing to maintain performance and service life.
