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

Dense patch panels leave little room for thick jackets. We build this thin network cord to lace through congested wire managers without choking exhaust paths. Stranded copper pairs keep the assembly flexible, while molded boots keep tabs intact through repeated pulls.

What it does

How this one is built

Slim profile routing

The reduced outer diameter leaves breathing room inside packed server enclosures. Bundles take up less volume in vertical managers, making room for ventilation and keeping switch faces visible.

Snagless connector hoods

Molded boots cover the plastic release tabs on both ends. You can pull a run back through a bundle of existing patch cords without breaking off the latch.

Gold plated contacts

Gold plating across the contact pins resists corrosion in humid closet environments. The connection maintains clear continuity across voice, data and video signals over years of service.

Stranded copper conductors

Four pairs of stranded copper wire give the assembly a tight bend radius. The cord drops cleanly from patch panels to switch banks without putting strain on the jacks.
