Ethernet patch cable NEWLINK ART-101.5 Cat6A 1.5m, Copper RJ45, 10Gbps, up to 600MHz, LSZH jacket

NEWLINK ART-101.5 is a 1.5 m Cat6A Ethernet patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. It uses copper conductors with standard RJ45 connectors and delivers performance up to 600 MHz. The cable is terminated with precision RJ45 plugs and is fitted with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket to reduce toxic and corrosive gases in case of fire. This combination of Cat6A specification, copper transmission and LSZH sheathing makes the cable suitable for professional LAN environments, data centers and office cabling where high bandwidth and safety are required.

Advantages

The cable supports 10Gbps throughput and tested performance up to 600 MHz, providing headroom for high-demand applications and future-proofing within Cat6A class limits. Copper RJ45 connectors ensure standard compatibility with network ports and switches while maintaining reliable signal integrity for short-run patching. The LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and halogen emissions in enclosed spaces, improving safety in commercial and public buildings. At 1.5 m length the cable is convenient for rack-to-switch or workstation connections without excess slack.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in office networks and data centers
• Patch panels, switches and short-distance rack connections (1.5 m)
• High-bandwidth LAN applications such as server uplinks and virtualization hosts
• Environments where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are desired (LSZH requirement)

When it may not be suitable

This 1.5 m patch cable is intended for short-distance connections and is not suitable for long horizontal runs or in-wall permanent installations where plenum or different fire ratings may be required. It is a copper-based unshielded or shielded Cat6A cable depending on the specific variant; if you require fiber optics for long-distance or electromagnetic isolation, a fiber optic cable would be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A
• Length: 1.5 m
• Conductor material: Copper
• Connector type: RJ45
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbps
• Frequency performance: up to 600 MHz
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network switch, patch panel or router and the other end to the target device such as a server, workstation or network appliance. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to confirm a secure connection. Use the 1.5 m length for tidy short connections in racks, under desks or between closely located equipment. Avoid tight bends near the connector and do not excessively bend or pull the cable; follow standard cable management practices to maintain performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required cable length (1.5 m) suits your installation to avoid excess slack or shortage.
• Confirm that Cat6A copper cabling meets your distance and bandwidth needs versus fiber alternatives for longer links.
• Ensure LSZH jacket meets local building and fire-safety regulations for the installation site.

Usage recommendations

For best results, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources, maintain gentle bend radii, and use properly mounted patch panels or strain reliefs in racks. Test connections after installation with a certified network tester to confirm 10Gbps link integrity and channel performance.
