Patchcord Slim Wirewine SLIM CAT6A 10Gb 0.5m U/FTP RJ-45 to RJ-45 black 90-pack

The SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord is a 0.5 m, round, shielded U/FTP patch cable designed for high-density and 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments. With a 3.8 mm outer diameter and a low-smoke, halogen-free outer sheath, this compact patch cord combines flexibility and performance for short connections between switches, panels and devices.

Advantages

The slim, highly flexible design makes the cable easy to route in crowded server racks, high-port-density switches and tight cable channels. It supports 10/1/0.1 Gigabit data rates and is compatible with PoE (IEEE802.3af/at). The U/FTP shielding and four twisted pairs ensure reliable signal transmission, while the LSOH sheath reduces smoke and toxic gases in case of fire. A specially engineered RJ45 plug with a break-resistant latch and an innovative boot design deliver durable strain relief and frequent-use reliability.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections in server cabinets and network racks
• High-density switches and patch panels where space is limited
• Desktop connections for VoIP phones, printers, PCs and notebooks
• Field technicians’ patch cords carried in laptop bags
• Industrial or residential situations where a thin, flexible cable must be routed through narrow passages

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5 m LightPatch cord is intended for short link patching and is not suitable as a permanent in-wall or long-distance horizontal cable. For longer runs, backbone cabling or installations requiring unshielded cable types, choose a full-length Cat6A or appropriate structured-cabling solution.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: U/FTP (each pair foil-shielded, overall drain)
• Conductor: 4 pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Outer diameter: 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Connector type: RJ-45 straight male to RJ-45 straight male
• Colour: Black
• Supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af / IEEE802.3at)

How to use

Use the SLIM Cat6A 0.5 m patch cord to connect adjacent switch ports, patch panels and devices where short, flexible cabling is required. Insert RJ45 plugs into the corresponding ports until the latch clicks. The reinforced latch and compact boot allow repeated insertion and removal without damage. Route the cable along the shortest path, avoiding sharp bends tighter than the cable diameter to preserve shielding and pair geometry.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended cable length: 0.5 m is suitable for short patching only
• Shielding requirement: U/FTP provides pair-level shielding—ensure proper grounding in the installation
• Use environment: LSOH sheath is appropriate for indoor and public-area installations
• Device compatibility: requires RJ-45 Ethernet ports and supports PoE standards listed

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use these slim Cat6A patch cords for short, high-density connections between adjacent switch ports or between a switch and a nearby patch panel. Ensure correct grounding of shielded cabling and avoid excessive bending or compressing of the cable to maintain 10 Gigabit performance.
