NEWLINK Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cable ART-100-H, 0.25 m, Copper RJ45, 10 Gigabit, up to 600 MHz, LSZH jacket

NEWLINK Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cable ART-100-H is a 0.25 m high-performance network patch lead with copper RJ45 connectors, designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and guaranteed to support frequencies up to 600 MHz. The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket to reduce smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for use in data centers, telecom racks, offices and home networks where short, reliable interconnections are required.

Advantages

The cable provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput over copper with shielding and construction consistent with Cat6A performance up to 600 MHz. The 0.25 m length reduces cable clutter in dense rack environments and ensures minimal signal loss for short patching runs. Copper RJ45 terminations offer broad compatibility with standard network ports, while the LSZH jacket improves safety in enclosed or public spaces by lowering smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Short patching between switches, patch panels and servers in data center racks
• Connecting network devices in telecom cabinets and equipment rooms
• High-speed workstation or office desktop connections where short reach is sufficient
• Home lab or compact home networking setups requiring 10 Gigabit links

When it may not be suitable

This 0.25 m patch cable is not intended for long-distance runs; it is optimized for short interconnects and patching inside racks or between closely located devices. For installations that require greater separation between devices or where external environmental protection is required, a longer cable or different jacket type may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A Ethernet patch cable
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connector type: Copper RJ45 on both ends
• Data rate: Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Frequency performance: Up to 600 MHz
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Typical use: Short patching runs, rack and cabinet interconnects

How to use

Insert the copper RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port on your switch, patch panel, server or network device until it clicks into place. Use this 0.25 m cable for short connections where minimal slack and tidy cable management are required. When disconnecting, press the RJ45 latch to release the connector and gently pull the plug from the port. Avoid tight bends near the connector to maintain performance at 10 Gigabit speeds.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that a 0.25 m length fits the planned cable routing and device spacing.
• Confirm that both endpoints support 10 Gigabit Ethernet to benefit from Cat6A performance.
• Consider whether an LSZH jacket is required for your environment or if a different jacket type is preferable.
• Ensure copper RJ45 compatibility with your network equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use this NEWLINK Cat6A 0.25 m patch cable for tidy, short-distance connections in racks and cabinets. Keep bend radius moderate, avoid kinking, and pair with proper cable management to maintain reliable 10 Gigabit performance and reduce electromagnetic interference in dense installations.
