Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 0.5m Grey

The Equip Cat.6A U/UTP Slim Patch Cable 0.5m Grey is a slim, high-performance Ethernet patch cable designed for data centers, enterprise networks and high-density installations. With a reduced diameter (32 AWG) and LSZH jacket, it supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and frequencies up to 500 MHz while keeping flexibility for frequent reconfigurations.

Advantages

The slim U/UTP design improves cable management and rack airflow compared with standard-thickness cables without sacrificing transmission performance. Unshielded twisted pair construction provides reliable data transfer in low to moderate electromagnetic interference environments. Stranded bare copper conductors and a molded boot with strain relief increase durability and make the 0.5 m patch cable easy to handle during installation and reconfiguration.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centres and server rooms
• High-density patch panels and crowded rack installations
• Short patch runs between switches, patch panels and network devices
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network switch, patch panel or router port and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device or port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Use the cable for short patch runs and frequent reconfigurations where a slim profile helps reduce congestion and improve airflow in racks.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tight bends and maintain recommended bend radius for 32 AWG cables. Keep the cable separated from strong electrical noise sources where possible and verify PoE power requirements of connected devices when using Power over Ethernet.
