Network cable MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6A Slim 1.5 m Blue

MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6A Slim 1.5 m Blue is a slim-profile unshielded twisted pair network cable engineered for high-speed LAN and 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The 1.5 metre length and narrow diameter make it suitable for tight routing spaces around racks, patch panels, workstations and home network installations where reduced cable bulk is required. The cable conforms to CAT6A performance parameters to support higher bandwidth and improved signal integrity compared with lower category cabling.

Advantages

The slim design reduces cable clutter and improves airflow in dense equipment racks and office workstations. CAT6A performance provides support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the specified distance while maintaining good crosstalk and return loss characteristics for reliable data transmission. The blue jacket allows quick visual identification in mixed-cable environments, and the 1.5 m length is convenient for short patching and device interconnection without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, patch panels and network devices
• Device interconnection at desks, media players and networked appliances
• Tidy cabling runs in racks and enclosures where space is limited
• Home networks and small office LAN segments requiring 10 Gbps-capable links

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6A U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 1.5 metres
• Colour: blue
• Conductor arrangement: twisted pairs designed for reduced crosstalk
• Application: supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over rated distance
• Profile: slim / reduced diameter for space-saving routing

How to use

Connect one RJ45-terminated end to the network device (switch, router, PC or patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port of the target device. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that strain is minimized at connection points. For best performance, avoid tight bends or kinks in the cable and keep the cable length appropriate for the run to reduce excess slack. When routing in racks or along cable channels, group runs to maintain airflow and access for maintenance.

Usage recommendations

Use this CAT6A slim cable for short links and patching where 10 Gigabit capability is required but space is constrained. Avoid running the cable in close parallel with high-voltage power lines to reduce interference risk, and replace any cable that shows visible damage to the jacket or connectors.
