StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, Gray, N6APATSTP34GRS-1FT

StarTech 1ft 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-1FT. Designed for dense IT environments, this gray network cable supports reliable 10Gbps Ethernet performance while making cable management easier in crowded racks, server rooms, and patch panels.

Improved Airflow and Flexible Routing

The Ultra Slim Cat6a patch cord is approximately 40% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, helping improve passive airflow and heat dissipation around connected equipment. Its flexible construction supports easier routing through narrow spaces and between closely positioned devices. Snagless RJ45 connectors help protect the retention clips during installation and removal, reducing the risk of snags or breakage in confined areas. The translucent RJ45 boots also allow port LED light to remain visible for faster link-status checks.

Reliable Cat6a Construction

StarTech.com builds this cable with 34 AWG pure bare copper conductors and U/FTP pair-level foil shielding to help reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts provide reliable mating and help minimize signal loss, while the durable thermoplastic elastomer jacket allows convenient handling and tight cable routing. The cable is RoHS compliant and designed for dependable use in edge computing, on-premises infrastructure, and high-density networking installations. This cable is not rated for Power over Ethernet applications.

Individually Tested Performance

Each StarTech.com N6APATSTP34GRS-1FT cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer to verify Cat6a performance in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 requirements. Testing helps confirm signal integrity, including controlled Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss (RL), for consistent operation at frequencies up to 500 MHz. A limited lifetime warranty further supports long-term installation confidence.
