Network patch cord Slim Wirewine SLIM-LS-K6A 0.25m Cat6A U/FTP RJ45 red 50-pack

SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord, 0.25m, U/FTP, Ø 3.8mm, red, 50-Pack is a slim, shielded Cat6A patch cable designed for high-density network installations and 10 Gigabit data transfer. The round U/FTP construction with four individually shielded pairs and an LSOH sheath provides a compact, flame-retardant cable suitable for professional and home applications where space is limited. The cable is supplied in a 50-piece bulk pack without individual packaging and features a reinforced RJ45 plug with a break-resistant latch.

Advantages

The LightPatch design combines a very small outer diameter (3.8 mm) and high flexibility, enabling easy routing in crowded racks, cable channels and along desks. Shielding (U/FTP) supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and reduces interference, while the LSOH sheath improves flame retardancy. The special RJ45 connector and reinforced boot minimize the risk of latch breakage, extending connector durability during frequent re-patching. The cable also supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af / 802.3at) for powered devices.

Suitable for

• High-density server racks and network cabinets where space is limited
• Switches with many ports — short links between switch, patch panel or module
• Connecting desk devices (VoIP phones, printers, PCs, notebooks) with neat cable routing
• Field technicians and service bags where compact patch cords are needed
• Industrial installations requiring Ethernet in confined spaces
• Home use: discrete routing (under carpets, along skirting boards, through window seals)

Когда это может быть не подходящим вариантом

The very small diameter and thin construction are optimized for short patching runs and high-density environments. For long permanent horizontal cabling runs or installations that require thicker conductors for maximum attenuation performance over long distances, a full-size Cat6A cable with larger conductor gauges may be preferable. The bulk pack format means cables are supplied without individual retail packaging.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data transfer rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor: 4 twisted pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Shielding: U/FTP (individually shielded pairs with overall foil)
• Outer diameter: 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), flame-retardant
• Connector: RJ45 straight — reinforced plug with break-proof latch
• PoE support: IEEE 802.3af / IEEE 802.3at
• Colour: Orange / red

How to use

Use the 0.25 m SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cord for short patching between switches, patch panels and network devices. Insert the RJ45 plug into the device port until the latch clicks, and verify connectivity with network test tools after installation. For cable management in high-density racks, route the thin cables through existing channels or along panels to reduce clutter. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable’s minimum bend radius and protect the connector when pulling the cable through tight spaces.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended use: short patching runs and high-density environments vs. long permanent horizontal runs
• Cable length: 0.25 m per patch cord — purchase appropriate number of units for your layout
• Connector and sheath preferences: reinforced RJ45 plug and LSOH jacket
• Bulk packaging: supplied as a 50-pack without individual retail packaging

Usage recommendations

For reliable 10 Gigabit patching in dense racks, use these SLIM Cat6A 0.25 m LightPatch cords between adjacent ports or from switch to patch panel, keep bends gentle, and test links after installation. Store and transport in the 50-pack to keep connectors protected until use.
