StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, Gray, 10 ft, N6APATSTP34GRS-10FT

StarTech 10ft Gray Ultra Slim Cat6A Ethernet Cable, Snagless, FTP, Bare Copper Wire, 34AWG Slim RJ45 Patch Cord

Connect switches, routers, patch panels, and other high-speed network devices with the StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, part number N6APATSTP34GRS-10FT. Designed for dependable 10 Gigabit Ethernet networking, this gray patch cable supports Cat6a performance up to 500 MHz while helping simplify installations in crowded server racks, data centers, and office network environments.

Improved Airflow and Routing

The Ultra Slim Cat6a Patch Cord is approximately 40% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, allowing more cables to fit into high-density installations while improving passive airflow around network equipment. Its flexible construction makes it easier to route through narrow spaces, between devices, and across patch panels. Snagless RJ45 connectors help protect the retaining clips during installation and removal, reducing the risk of snags or connector damage.

Reliable, Shielded Construction

StarTech.com N6APATSTP34GRS-10FT uses 34 AWG pure bare copper conductors and U/FTP pair-level foil shielding to help reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts support precise mating and consistent signal transmission, while the flexible thermoplastic elastomer jacket provides durability for everyday handling. A translucent RJ45 boot allows port LED light to remain visible, helping technicians check link status more quickly. This cable is RoHS-compliant and is not rated for Power over Ethernet applications.

Tested for Cat6a Performance

Each cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer to meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 requirements for Cat6a performance. Testing helps verify signal integrity and minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss (RL), providing dependable connectivity for high-speed network infrastructure. With a lifetime limited warranty, this StarTech.com cable is a practical choice for edge, on-premises, and structured cabling deployments.
