Ethernet Patch Cable Cat6A NEWLINK 20m, Copper RJ45, 10Gbps, up to 600MHz, LSZH (ART-120K)

NEWLINK Cat6A Ethernet patch cable, 20 m, is a data cabling solution designed for high-speed wired networks. Constructed with copper conductors and fitted with RJ45 connectors, the cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and is rated for performance up to 600 MHz. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it suitable for indoor installations where low-toxicity materials are required.

Advantages

The cable provides stable 10Gbps throughput for backbone runs and high-density network points while maintaining signal integrity across longer patch distances thanks to Cat6A specification and copper conductors. The 20 m length accommodates flexible placement of switches and equipment without additional splicing or couplers. The LSZH jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces by minimizing harmful fumes and smoke during a fire, and RJ45 terminations ensure compatibility with standard Ethernet ports.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit LAN links between switches, servers, and workstations
• Backbone and horizontal cabling in office and data center environments
• High-bandwidth applications such as virtualization, video streaming, and large file transfers
• Installations that require low-smoke, low-toxicity materials (hallways, comms rooms, public buildings)

When it may not be suitable

This Cat6A patch cable is intended for copper-based Ethernet networks; it is not suitable where fiber-optic connections are required for very long distances or for electromagnetic isolation. The 20 m fixed length may be excessive for short desktop runs and less convenient where custom lengths or frequent re-routing are needed.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A
• Length: 20 m
• Conductor material: Copper
• Connectors: RJ45 on both ends
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbps
• Frequency rating: up to 600 MHz
• Jacket type: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Recommended environment: indoor network installations

How to use

Route the NEWLINK Cat6A cable between network devices ensuring connectors are fully inserted into RJ45 ports until they click. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force to preserve cable performance; maintain bend radii recommended for Cat6A cabling. For permanent cabling runs, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management to prevent strain on connectors. If used in patch panels or keystone jacks, verify port wiring and terminate with compatible RJ45 jacks if required.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that 20 m is the required patch length for your installation to avoid excess slack.
• Check whether LSZH jacket is necessary for your building code or safety requirements.
• Ensure your network equipment supports 10Gbps and the intended frequency performance.

Usage recommendations

Use this NEWLINK Cat6A 20 m cable for reliable 10 Gbps fixed-length links in data centers, comms rooms, and office backbones. Keep the cable away from sources of electrical interference and install with proper cable management to maintain performance over time.
