Ethernet Patch Cable CAT6A Cable Slim - Black - Professional Series - 10Gigabit/Sec Network/Internet Cable, 550MHZ
InstallerParts Cat6A Slim Ethernet Patch Cable – Black
The InstallerParts Cat6A Slim Ethernet Patch Cable in Black delivers full 10 Gigabit CAT6A performance in a slim form factor. With a cable diameter nearly half that of a standard CAT6A cable, it reduces congestion in high-density environments like data centers, server rooms, and telecom closets — while improving airflow and cable organization.
- Slim Line Design: Nearly half the diameter of standard CAT6A — for tighter, more organized cable bundles and better airflow in high-density environments.
- 100% Bare Copper Wire: No CCA (copper-clad aluminum) — pure copper ensures optimal signal integrity and long-term durability.
- 50 Micron Gold-Plated RJ45 Plugs: Corrosion-resistant contacts for a reliable, low-loss connection every time.
- 10 Gbps Speed / 500 MHz Bandwidth: Full CAT6A performance — backward compatible with CAT6 and CAT5 networks.
- Standards Compliant: Meets or exceeds TIA/EIA T-568B. UL/cUL Listed. RoHS compliant.
- Money-Back Guarantee: Full refund if you're not satisfied.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Cat6A Slim different from standard Cat6A?
The slim cable has roughly half the diameter of standard Cat6A, making it ideal for high-density rack cabling and improved airflow, while still delivering full 10Gbps / 500MHz performance.
Can 28AWG cable be used for PoE?
Yes, it supports standard PoE and PoE+ applications. For long-distance high-power PoE++ runs, keep bundle lengths shorter and allow for the heat characteristics of the thinner conductor.
Is it backward compatible with Cat6 / Cat5e equipment?
Yes. With standard RJ45 connectors and T568B wiring, it is fully backward compatible with existing Cat6 and Cat5e network hardware.
