Network patch cord Slim Wirewine SLIM-LS-K6A 0.1m CAT6A U/FTP RJ-45 to RJ-45 blue 50-pack

SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord, 0.1m, U/FTP, Ø 3.8mm, blue, 50-Pack is a slim, shielded Cat6A patch cable designed for high-density installations and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The cable is round, consists of four twisted pairs with U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foil-shielded pairs) construction, and uses a flame-retardant LSOH outer sheath. The RJ45 connector features a reinforced, break-resistant latch and an innovative short boot for easy handling in cramped spaces.

Advantages

The Slim LightPatch cord combines very small diameter (approx. 3.8 mm) and high flexibility with certified Cat6A performance for up to 10 Gbit/s. Its U/FTP shielding supports reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity, while the LSOH sheath provides flame-retardant properties. The rugged RJ45 plug with a durable, break-proof latch reduces the risk of connector damage during repeated use. The short, narrow boot simplifies patching in high port density switches and crowded cable channels.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels in dense server racks and network cabinets
• Short connections for VoIP phones, printers, PCs and notebooks on desks
• Environments where space is limited (cable ducts, behind furniture, window seals)
• Technicians and field staff carrying spare patch cords in bags
• Industrial applications requiring Ethernet with limited installation space

When it may not be suitable

This very short 0.1 m cable is intended for patching in tight spaces and for short-distance connections; it is not suitable for runs that require longer cable lengths. Because the cable is thin and designed for flexibility and density, it may be less suitable where heavy mechanical strain, frequent dragging across rough surfaces, or outdoor exposure is expected unless additional protection is applied.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A (channel measured), suitable for 10 Gbit/s
• Length: 0.1 m
• Conductor: 4 pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Shielding: U/FTP (individual pair foil shield)
• Outer diameter: approx. 3.8 mm
• Jacket material: LSOH (flame-retardant)
• Connector: RJ-45 straight male on both ends with reinforced, break-proof latch
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit)
• PoE support: compatible with IEEE 802.3af / 802.3at
• Colour: orange (product shown as blue in title but product colour listed as orange)

How to use

Use the 0.1 m LightPatch cord to connect adjacent ports on switches, patch panels, or devices where only a very short cable is required. Simply insert the RJ45 plug into the device port until the reinforced latch clicks. The short boot and slim cable allow neat routing in high-density racks and under desks. For PoE devices verify power requirements against the switch or injector specifications before connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length — this product is very short (0.1 m) and intended for patching nearby ports
• Intended environment — indoor use and protected installations are recommended; provide extra protection for mechanically demanding or outdoor use
• Compatibility with PoE standards if powering devices over Ethernet
• Colour preference — product colour is listed as orange though similar products may be blue

Usage recommendations

For best results use these SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cords to shorten patch runs inside racks and to tidy connections between high-density switches and panels. Avoid applying excessive mechanical stress to the thin cable and keep connections in protected indoor environments; when using PoE, ensure the switch or injector supports the required power class.
