Network patch cord Slim Wirewine SLIM-LS-K6A Cat6A U/FTP 10Gbps RJ-45–RJ-45 0.1m green 50-pack

The SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord is a 0.1 m, round, U/FTP-shielded patch cable designed for high-density and space-constrained network installations. With a 3.8 mm outer diameter and a halogen-free, flame-retardant sheath, this lightweight cable supports 10 Gigabit data rates and allows Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af/at). The cable is supplied in a 50-pack and features an RJ-45 plug with a reinforced, break-resistant latch and an innovative short boot for easy handling.

Advantages

The thin, highly flexible design reduces cable bulk in crowded server cabinets and switch panels while still meeting Cat6A performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The U/FTP shielding provides improved noise immunity compared with unshielded cords, and the LSOH outer sheath adds flame retardance and lower smoke emission. The special RJ45 connector and reinforced latch increase mechanical durability and reduce the risk of connector breakage during repeated use.

Suitable for

• Patching between high-density switches and patch panels in cramped racks
• Short patch runs on desks for VoIP phones, printers, PCs and notebooks
• Overcrowded cable channels and situations with limited space
• Field technicians carrying compact patch cords in service bags
• Industrial cabinets or embedded installations where space is restricted

When it may not be suitable

This very short 0.1 m patch cord is intended only for very short connections and patching within racks or between adjacent ports. It is not suitable as a permanent in-wall or long-distance link. If you need longer runs, alternative cable lengths should be chosen.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit)
• Shielding: U/FTP (foil-shielded pairs with overall drain)
• Conductor: 4 twisted pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Outer diameter: approx. 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen), flame-retardant
• Length: 0.1 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 straight male — both ends
• Boot/strain relief: short, narrow design with reinforced latch
• PoE support: compatible with IEEE802.3af and IEEE802.3at
• Colour: green (product listing notes orange on some references)

How to use

Use the patch cord to connect adjacent ports on switches, patch panels or network devices where a very short link is required. Align the RJ-45 plug with the device port and press the plug in until the latch clicks. To remove, press the reinforced latch and withdraw the plug. The flexible cable can be routed in tight spaces and bent gently as needed, but avoid sharp kinks or crushing forces that could damage the shielding or conductors.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length — this product is 0.1 m and intended for very short connections only
• Compatibility with device ports — RJ-45 straight male connectors on both ends
• Shielding needs — U/FTP provides better EMI protection than unshielded cables
• Colour requirements for patching identification — product is listed as green but some references mention orange
• PoE usage — supports IEEE802.3af/at but verify device power requirements

Usage recommendations

For best results in high-density racks, use these 0.1 m SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cords to short-link adjacent switch ports or connect a switch to a nearby patch panel, keeping cable runs minimal and avoiding cable management panels where space is limited.
