DeLOCK RJ45 Cat.6A Network Cable 3m Black

This DeLOCK RJ45 Cat.6A network cable is a 3 m slim patch cable designed to connect networking devices such as a NIC, switch or patch panel. It meets the Cat.6A standard, has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and F/UTP shielding to reduce interference while supporting high-speed data transmission. The slim black design allows flexible, space-saving routing in network cabinets and tight installations.

Advantages

The slim construction reduces cable diameter for improved airflow and easier cable management in crowded racks. Cat.6A specification and F/UTP (foil over twisted pairs) shielding provide reliable performance for high-bandwidth applications and help minimise electromagnetic interference. RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure compatibility with common network equipment, and the 3 m length suits many desktop and cabinet connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting a network interface card (NIC) to a switch
• Patch panel to switch or switch-to-switch short links
• High-speed Ethernet connections in office and data cabinet environments
• Installations where space is limited and slim cable routing is required

Key specifications

• Length: 3 m
• Standard: Cat.6A
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil over twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Black

How to use

Route the slim patch cable between the two network devices ensuring connectors are aligned with the RJ-45 ports. Insert the RJ-45 plugs firmly until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources when possible to maintain optimal signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable within its intended 3 m length for in-rack or desktop connections, avoid tight sharp bends and do not place heavy objects on the cable. When installing multiple cables, maintain proper cable management to preserve airflow and minimise crosstalk.
