Microconnect V-FTP6A05R slanke netwerkkabel rood 5 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A05R-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 5m Red is a slim, flexible U/FTP shielded networking cable designed for installations in space-constrained IT racks and cabinets. It supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is channel link tested to 500 MHz (Cat6a), offering reliable performance for high-speed networks while its reduced diameter improves cable routing and rack accessibility.

Advantages

This slim Cat6a cable combines high transmission performance with a thinner, more flexible design that eases installation in crowded racks and cabinets. The U/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, while the slim profile improves airflow inside enclosures, which can help lower the risk of downtime. Each cable is channel link tested up to 500 MHz and includes a snagless design to protect the RJ-45 connector when pulling the cable through tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Patching in dense server racks and network cabinets
• Horizontal cabling where space is limited
• Connections between switches, patch panels and servers
• Environments requiring U/FTP shielding to reduce interference

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network device (switch, patch panel or NIC) and the other RJ-45 connector to the corresponding port. Route the slim cable through rack openings or cable management channels, taking advantage of its flexibility to reduce bending stress. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and locked. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and keep the cable separated from large power cables where possible.

Recommendations

For optimal results in rack environments, use this slim Cat6a cable for short- to medium-length patching (up to 5 m) between switches, patch panels and servers. Maintain proper cable management and avoid exceeding bend radii; follow your rack and equipment manufacturer guidelines for airflow and spacing to preserve signal integrity and reduce interference.
