Network patch cable Slim Wirewine SLIM-LS-K6A 10 Gigabit Cat6A U/FTP 1.0 m orange, RJ-45–RJ-45 (90 pcs)

SLIM Patchcords CAT6A 10 Gigabit LightPatch Cord, 1.0 m, U/FTP, Ø 3.8 mm, orange — a thin, round, shielded Cat6A patch cable designed for high-density installations and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The cable uses four twisted pairs with U/FTP shielding, a low-smoke, halogen-free (LSOH) sheath and a specially designed RJ45 plug with a break-resistant latch. It supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af/at) and is tested for channel performance to meet Cat6A requirements.

Advantages

The slim round design and 3.8 mm outer diameter make this patch cord highly flexible and suitable for crowded server racks, high-port switches and desk-level connections. The LSOH jacket improves fire safety in enclosed spaces, while the special RJ45 boot and material for the latch reduce the risk of connector breakage during repeated handling. The cable is rated for 10,000 Mbit/s and has been tested both as a patch cord and in a channel.

Suitable for

• High-density switch-to-switch or switch-to-panel patching in server and network cabinets
• Desk connections for VoIP phones, printers, PCs and notebooks
• Industrial or space-constrained installations requiring Ethernet connectivity
• Technician field kits and laptop bags as a compact patch cord
• Discreet routing such as under carpets, along skirting boards or through window seals

When it may not be suitable

This ultra-slim patch cord is optimized for short connections and high-density routing; it may not be the best choice for long-distance backbone links or applications that require maximum mechanical protection against crushing or sharp bends. For environments with heavy mechanical wear or where thicker armored cables are required, a more robust cable type should be considered.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A (channel measured)
• Data transfer rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s
• Cable length: 1.0 m
• Conductor: 4 pairs, solid AWG32, 100% copper
• Shielding: U/FTP (each pair foil-shielded, overall unshielded)
• Outer diameter: 3.8 mm
• Sheath material: LSOH (low-smoke, halogen-free)
• Connector: RJ-45 straight male — break-resistant latch and reinforced boot
• Color: Orange
• PoE support: IEEE 802.3af / IEEE 802.3at

How to use

Connect the RJ45 plugs to the corresponding Ethernet ports on network switches, patch panels or end devices. The slim, flexible design simplifies routing through crowded cable channels, behind racks, or along desk surfaces. Avoid tight kinks and ensure bend radii are not excessively sharp; the reinforced boot makes repeated insertion and removal more durable.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended cable length — this product is 1.0 m and best for short patching runs
• Installation environment — LSOH jacket improves safety in indoor and enclosed spaces
• Mechanical stress — for heavy-duty or outdoor use, consider more robust or armored alternatives
• Compatibility — requires RJ45 ports and supports PoE at IEEE 802.3af/at levels

Usage recommendations

Use these SLIM Cat6A LightPatch cables for short, high-density connections where flexibility and low profile are important. For permanent or long-distance runs, choose appropriate in-wall or backbone-rated cabling instead.
