StarTech.com 7ft Black Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable - Snagless UTP Patch Cord with Bare Copper Conductors

StarTech 7ft Black Ultra Slim CAT6a Ethernet Cable, Snagless, UTP, Bare Copper Wire, 34AWG Slim RJ45 Patch Cord

The StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable is engineered to provide reliable high-speed network connectivity up to 10Gbps in tight spaces and dense IT environments. Its ultra-slim design is 40% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, facilitating easier routing and improved airflow in crowded server racks and patch panels. This flexibility allows network installers to manage cables more efficiently without sacrificing performance or durability. The translucent boot design not only protects the RJ45 connector but also transmits port-LED indicators for quick and easy link status checks, streamlining troubleshooting and maintenance tasks.

Constructed with 50-micron gold-plated contacts, this patch cord ensures a precise connection that minimizes signal loss and maintains signal integrity over time. The 34 AWG pure bare copper wire offers excellent conductivity and low resistance, supporting consistent data transmission essential for high-performance networks. The flexible 2.6mm outer diameter TPE jacket provides durability and withstands tight bends, making it ideal for complex installations where space is limited. Compliant with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standards, this cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer to guarantee minimal Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss (RL), ensuring reliable Cat6a performance up to 500MHz. Not rated for PoE applications, it is designed specifically for high-speed data transmission.

This cable’s design emphasizes efficiency and ease of installation in high-density network environments, offering a balance of performance, flexibility, and durability. Its lightweight construction simplifies cable management, while the snagless connectors prevent damage during installation. Whether used in edge deployments or on-premises network setups, the StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Patch Cable delivers the performance and reliability required by IT professionals. Backed by a lifetime warranty, this cable is a dependable choice for demanding network infrastructures seeking optimal airflow, organized cabling, and consistent high-speed connectivity.
