helos 75513-SLR U/FTP CAT6A slim patch cable, red, 3.0m

helos 75513-SLR is a 3.0 m slim red patch cable designed for Category 6A networks. It features U/FTP shielding (each pair foil-shielded with an overall jacket), molded flat slim connectors and RJ-45 male-to-male terminations. The cable is intended for high-speed Ethernet and structured cabling where 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance and reduced alien crosstalk are required while saving space in dense patch panels and narrow cable routes.

Advantages

The U/FTP construction provides enhanced protection against alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded alternatives. The slim, flat molded design reduces the cable cross-section for easier routing behind racks and in tight conduits. Category 6A specification ensures support for 10GbE applications and typical data-center and office networking needs while the red jacket improves visual identification and color-coding in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in server rooms and network closets
• Interconnections between switches, patch panels and servers
• Structured cabling where space is limited or cable density is high
• Environments that benefit from shielded cabling to reduce interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 6A (Cat6A)
• Length: 3.0 m
• Shielding: U/FTP (each pair foil-shielded plus overall jacket)
• Connector type: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male
• Form factor: slim, flat molded cable and connectors
• Color: red

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network device (switch, patch panel or server) and the other RJ-45 end to the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the slim patch cable through cable management trays, behind racks, or along cable channels to keep runs tidy and avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable's bending radius. For shielded links, ensure proper grounding of the connected equipment and patch panels according to your installation standards to maintain shielding effectiveness.

Recommendations

Use this helos Cat6A U/FTP slim patch cable for short to medium horizontal or equipment interconnects up to 3.0 m. Avoid tight bends and repeated flexing near the connector boots; maintain proper grounding for shield performance. Color-code runs using the red jacket where visibility and quick identification are beneficial.
