Tripp Lite Cat6a 10G Ethernet Cable, Snagless Molded Slim UTP Network Patch Cable (RJ45 M/M)

Dense patch fields choke off air when thick jackets bunch together. We built this skinny patch cord to take up less space in wire managers and let exhaust escape busy frames. The aqua jacket makes dedicated drops easy to trace during maintenance.

What it does

How this one is built

Slim cable profile

Skinny jacket diameter leaves open space in high-density rack channels. Air moves freely past dense wire bundles, keeping switches cooler inside crowded network cabinets.

Snagless molded boots

Molded boots shield the release tabs so they do not catch and snap when pulling lines through tight harness runs. Strain relief keeps the wire seated.

Gold plated contacts

Gold plating across the contact pins resists corrosion and maintains clean metal-to-metal connection through repeated moves, adds, and changes at the patch panel.

Stranded copper conductors

Stranded copper pairs flex smoothly around tight rack corners without kinking. Terminations seat squarely in standard network jacks on servers, routers, and hubs.
