Network patch cable MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6A Slim 0.25 m Red

MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6A Slim 0.25 m Red is a slim unshielded twisted pair patch cable engineered for short-distance Ethernet connections where space and clarity matter. With CAT6A performance it supports up to 10 Gbps transmission and is intended for tidy, low-profile interconnections between switches, patch panels and network devices. The 0.25 m length and flexible red jacket make it suitable for dense rack environments and cable management schemes that require clear visual identification.

Advantages

The cable offers CAT6A-rated performance in a slim, flexible design that reduces bulk in congested cable runs. Its unshielded construction simplifies installation in typical LAN environments while maintaining compatibility with standard RJ45 ports. The short length minimizes signal loss for immediate device-to-device connections and helps keep patch panels organized. The red outer jacket provides quick visual identification for maintenance and documentation.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches and patch panels in server racks
• Direct device interconnects in network cabinets and telecommunications enclosures
• Cable management in dense, low-profile installations
• 10 Gbps Ethernet links within local area networks over short distances

Key specifications

• Category: U/UTP CAT6A performance
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor type: unshielded twisted pair
• Data rate support: up to 10 Gbps
• Connector interface: RJ45 compatible
• Jacket color: red
• Design: slim, low-profile cable jacket for dense installations

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network switch or patch panel port and the other RJ45 plug to the target device or adjacent panel port. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the connector latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Use the short 0.25 m length to route the cable neatly within racks or enclosures, avoiding tight bends that could stress the jacket or conductors.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this cable for short intra-rack connections and patching where CAT6A performance is required but space is limited. Avoid excessive bending radii and keep the cable separate from high-power electrical lines to reduce potential interference. Label both ends if using multiple colored cables to maintain clear documentation of network topology.
