Networking Cable SLIM Patchcords PKW-STP-SLIM-K6A 0.5 GN

The SLIM Patchcords PKW-STP-SLIM-K6A 0.5 GN is a slim, 0.5 meter networking cable designed for high-performance Ethernet connections. Built to Cat6a specifications with U/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, the cable supports reliable data transmission while minimizing electromagnetic interference. Its reduced-diameter jacket makes it suitable for installations where space is limited, such as behind racks, inside patch panels or between closely spaced devices.

Advantages

The slim construction reduces bulk inside cable bundles and improves airflow in dense installations without sacrificing performance. U/FTP shielding (foil around each pair plus overall drain) helps lower crosstalk and external interference, supporting stable high-speed links. Short length and robust RJ-45 connectors provide low-latency connection points for patching equipment, switches and network outlets. The cable’s flexibility and compact profile simplify routing in constrained areas.

Suitable for

• Patching between rack-mounted switches and patch panels in server rooms
• Connecting desktop computers, VoIP phones and network printers in office environments
• Home networking between routers, modems and media devices where space is limited
• High-density cabling runs where reduced cable diameter improves cable management

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/FTP (foil around each pair with overall drain)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 0.5 m
• Conductor: stranded copper for flexibility
• Colour: green
• Design: slim/low-profile jacket for tight spaces

How to use

Plug an RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other end into the corresponding port on a switch, patch panel or router. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure physical connection. For permanent installations, avoid sharp bends and kinking; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius where possible. Use the short 0.5 m length to create tidy connections in cabinets or between adjacent equipment.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, deploy the cable within shielded or grounded installations to take full advantage of the U/FTP shielding. Avoid running the cable in close parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. Use in combination with matching shielded patch panels and connectors when installing in professional or high-density network environments.
