N261-S10-YW

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

Dense patch fields leave little room for stiff cords to bend, and thick bundles choke off exhaust air behind hot servers. We build this patch cable with a slim profile that opens up airflow through crowded wire managers. The yellow jacket marks out specific drops right away on a crowded switch face.

What it does

How this one is built

Slim jacket profile

The narrow diameter takes up less room in vertical managers and lets exhaust air move past crowded switch banks. It bends easily into tight corners without putting side load on the jack.

Snagless boot design

A molded hood shields each release tab so the head pulls through existing bundles without catching or shearing off. The integrated strain relief keeps the wire pairs seated firmly in the plug housing.

Gold plated contacts

Gold plating across the copper contacts keeps mating resistance low and limits signal degradation across repeated patch changes. Stranded conductors handle regular movement as switch assignments shift over time.

Yellow cable jacket

A bright yellow jacket helps identify specific data drops, dedicated uplinks, or voice circuits at a glance. It makes tracing an individual run through a packed cabinet straightforward without pulling tone.
