Network Patch Cord Slim Wirewine SLIM-LS-K6A Cat6A U/FTP 10Gbps RJ-45 to RJ-45 0.5m green 90-pack

SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord, 0.50m, U/FTP, Ø 3.8mm in green is a compact, round Cat6A patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable is thin and highly flexible with a 3.8 mm outer diameter, four twisted pairs and U/FTP shielding, and uses an RJ45 straight male connector at both ends. The outer sheath is made of flame-retardant LSOH material and the connector features a reinforced, break-resistant latch for improved durability.

Advantages

The slim, flexible construction makes this patch cord easy to route in crowded racks, dense switch panels and constrained spaces while still supporting 10 Gb/s data rates. U/FTP shielding and 100% copper AWG32 conductors provide reliable signal transmission and allow Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af/at). The specially designed boot and the break-proof RJ45 latch increase longevity during frequent plugging and unplugging.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels in high-density racks
• Connecting desktop devices such as VoIP phones, printers, PCs and notebooks
• Short links in server cabinets or cable channels where space is limited
• Field technicians carrying compact patch cords in tool bags
• Industrial or home installations where a thin, flexible cable must be routed under carpets or through narrow gaps

When it may not be suitable

This cable is designed for short patching runs (0.5 m) and may not be suitable for longer backbone connections or installations that require bulk cable with different mechanical protections. It is not intended to replace permanent structured cabling over long distances where thicker, unshielded or different-category cables might be preferred.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit)
• Conductor: 4 pairs, AWG32, 100% copper
• Shielding: U/FTP (individually foil-shielded pairs with overall drain)
• Outer diameter: Ø 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (flame-retardant)
• Connector type: RJ45 straight male – both ends
• Colour: Green
• Boot: narrow, short, press-to-release design
• Supports Power over Ethernet: IEEE802.3af / IEEE802.3at

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connector into the switch, patch panel or device RJ45 port until the latch clicks. For removal, press the boot over the latch (press-to-release design) and gently withdraw the plug. Route the thin cable through tight spaces, under carpets or along edges as needed; avoid sharp bends beyond manufacturer-recommended bend radii and prevent crushing to maintain performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Length: 0.5 m is suitable for short patching only
• Shielding: U/FTP provides EMI protection but requires properly grounded infrastructure
• Use case: intended for patching and short links, not long-distance backbone cabling
• Connector durability: reinforced latch reduces breakage risk during frequent use

Usage recommendations

Use these SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cords for short, high-density connections where flexibility and space-saving are priorities. Ensure proper grounding when using shielded cables and avoid excessive bending or crushing to preserve signal quality and PoE capability.
