Ethernet patch cable NEWLINK ART-103 Cat6A 3m, Copper RJ45, 10Gbps, up to 600MHz, LSZH jacket

NEWLINK ART-103 is a 3 m Cat6A Ethernet patch cable with copper RJ45 connectors engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and signal performance up to 600 MHz. The cable uses copper conductors and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket to limit toxic and corrosive emissions in the event of fire. It is intended for structured cabling in data centers, office networks and other environments where high-speed, shielded network links are required over short to moderate distances.

Advantages

The design combines Cat6A transmission characteristics with solid copper RJ45 terminations to support 10Gbps link rates and high-frequency operation up to 600 MHz. The LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke and halogen release compared with standard PVC sheathing, which can be important for installations in enclosed public spaces, server rooms and commercial premises. The 3 m length provides a convenient reach for patching between switches, patch panels and workstations while keeping cable runs neat and manageable.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, servers and workstations
• Data center patching and horizontal cabling in server rooms
• Office networks requiring high bandwidth and reduced-emission cabling
• Audio/video systems and AV racks that require high-frequency, low-noise links

When it may not be suitable

This 3 m Cat6A patch cable is intended for short patching runs; it is not suitable for long-distance backbone cabling where permanent link specifications or fiber optic solutions are required. If conduit or outdoor exposure is expected, confirm that the LSZH jacket meets the specific environmental and mechanical protection needs; additional protective routing or outdoor-rated cables may be necessary.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A, suitable for 10Gbps Ethernet
• Length: 3 m
• Conductor: copper
• Connector type: RJ45 (8P8C) copper contacts
• Frequency performance: up to 600 MHz
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)

How to use

Use the NEWLINK ART-103 to connect network devices such as switches, patch panels, servers and desktop workstations. Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding port until a tactile click confirms the latch engagement. Route the cable to avoid tight bends, sharp edges and sources of electromagnetic interference; maintain a reasonable separation from power cables and large electrical equipment. For best performance, keep total channel length and connector counts within the limits specified by the installation standard in use.

What to consider before purchase

• Required link length and whether 3 m patching is sufficient for your rack or desk layout
• Whether LSZH jacket material meets fire-safety and building-code requirements for the installation site
• Need for shielded versus unshielded cabling in environments with high electromagnetic interference
• Compatibility of RJ45 ports on existing equipment and the requirement for true copper conductors

Usage recommendations

For reliable 10Gbps operation, use NEWLINK ART-103 for short interconnects in racks and patch panels, avoid kinking or excessive bending radii, and route away from mains cabling. Verify installation practices and channel length according to your network standard to ensure sustained high-frequency performance.
