Black Box Slim-Net Cat 6a UTP Patch Network Cable - 28-AWG Low-Profile 10G Ethernet Cable

Black Box Slim-Net Cat.6a UTP Patch Network Cable

The Black Box Slim-Net Cat 6a UTP Patch Network Cable offers a space-saving solution for high-density networking environments. Designed with a low-profile 28-AWG construction, this cable reduces clutter and maximizes available rack space in crowded telecom rooms, data centers, and high-speed 10G Ethernet applications. Its slim design allows for easier installation and maintenance, providing more room for fingers during patching and MACs, while also improving airflow and heat dissipation for better system performance. This cable's compact footprint makes it ideal for vertical cable management and high-density patch panels, enabling users to optimize rack utilization and reduce the need for additional cable management accessories.

The Black Box Slim-Net cable is engineered to meet industry standards, featuring 50-micron gold-plated contacts that ensure superior conductivity and durable connectors rated for 750 insertion cycles. It is tested to 500 MHz, complying with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 performance standards for reliable 10G Ethernet transmission. The snagless boots protect connectors during installation, preventing damage caused by snags or accidental pulls, thereby enhancing the longevity of the cable and maintaining network integrity. Available in multiple lengths and vibrant blue color, the cable is environmentally friendly, made with PVC jacket complying with RoHS regulations, and built in China by Black Box Corporation, a trusted name in networking solutions.

Designed for flexibility and efficiency, the Slim-Net Cat 6a cables facilitate neat and organized cable runs, reducing clutter and enabling better airflow within racks. The nearly half-diameter of traditional cables allows for more cables in the same space, which is especially beneficial in high-density 1U and 2U patch panels. The robust construction, combined with a lifetime limited warranty, ensures a reliable and long-lasting network connection. Whether deploying new infrastructure or upgrading existing systems, this cable delivers high performance in a compact form factor, making it an excellent choice for data centers, server rooms, and enterprise networks.
