Slim Wirewine SLIM Patchcord CAT6A 10Gbps LightPatch Cord U/FTP RJ‑45–RJ‑45 0.1m orange 50‑pack

SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord, 0.1m, U/FTP, Ø 3.8mm, red, 50-Pack is a slim, shielded Cat6A patch cable designed for high-density network environments. The round, four-pair U/FTP cable and reinforced RJ45 connector support data rates up to 10 Gbit/s and allow Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af / 802.3at) while maintaining a small outer diameter and a flame-retardant LSOH sheath.

Advantages

The cable’s thin and highly flexible construction simplifies routing in crowded racks, cabinets and tight conduits. Its U/FTP (pair-shielded) design ensures reliable signal performance for 10 Gigabit networks, and the special RJ45 plug features a break-proof latch that withstands repeated bending. The LSOH outer sheath provides flame retardancy and safer use in indoor installations.

Suitable for

• Patching between high-density switches and patch panels in server rooms and network cabinets
• Short connections from switches to panels or between switches where space is limited
• Connecting desktop devices such as VoIP phones, printers and PCs where flexible short cables are needed
• Portable technician kits and field service bags where compact patch cords are required
• Installations under carpets, along skirting boards or through narrow gaps in home or office settings

When it may not be suitable

This 0.1 m patch cord is intended for very short, point-to-point connections; it is not suitable for long runs or backbone cabling. If you require extension over longer distances or permanent in-wall trunking, choose a longer cable or structured cabling components designed for those uses.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Length: 0.1 m
• Shielding: U/FTP (pair-shielded)
• Conductor: 4 twisted pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Outer diameter: Ø 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen), flame-retardant
• Connector type: RJ-45 straight male — both ends
• Supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af / 802.3at)
• Connector design: reinforced boot and break-proof latch
• Colour: orange / red

How to use

Plug the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your network devices (switch, patch panel, PC, VoIP phone). Use this 0.1 m patch cord for direct, short-distance connections where minimal slack and a compact cable profile are needed. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the connector latch clicks to secure the connection. For best performance, avoid sharp bends or crushing of the cable and keep the pair twist integrity as intact as possible near the connector.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length — this product is 0.1 m and intended for very short links
• Compatibility with PoE standards if you plan to power devices via Ethernet
• Need for shielding — U/FTP is suitable for environments where crosstalk or EMI mitigation is important
• Colour preference for visual management (orange/red)

Usage recommendations

Use these SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cords for high-density switch-to-panel or short switch-to-switch connections in racks and cabinets. Store spare cords in technician kits for quick on-site patching; avoid using this 0.1 m length as a substitute for permanent or long-distance cabling.
