Why choose it

The slim design reduces cable bulk, improving airflow in high-density racks and simplifying cable management. U/FTP shielding with individually foil-wrapped pairs protects against alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10GBASE-T performance even in noisy environments. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain signal integrity over repeated insertions. Backward compatibility with Cat.6, Cat.5e, and Cat.5 means it works with existing infrastructure.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting servers, switches, and storage in data centers
• High-speed workstation links in offices
• PoE applications up to 10 Gbps (e.g., Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP cameras)
• Home networks with 10G NAS or gaming setups

Good to know

The cable is stranded for flexibility and comes with molded snagless boots to protect the locking tabs during installation. It is compliant with TIA/EIA 568B wiring and suitable for use in structured cabling systems. The grey jacket blends into most rack and office environments.
