Description

Black Box C6APC28-GN-05 Slim-net CAT6A Patch Cable

Overview

The Black Box C6APC28-GN-05 is a 5-foot Category 6A slim patch cable designed for high-density network environments. Its low-profile, flexible jacket and compact connectors minimize space requirements in server racks and patch panels, facilitating cleaner cable management and improved airflow. This cable is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications up to 100 meters, making it a solid choice for data centers, enterprise networks, and surveillance systems requiring robust, high-speed connectivity.

Compatibility

This Cat6A cable supports 10Gbps Ethernet and is backward compatible with Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 networks. It is designed to connect network devices such as switches, routers, servers, workstations, and IP cameras that utilize standard RJ45 connectors. Its slim design is particularly beneficial when working with high-density patch panels or when routing cables in tight conduits where standard bulkier cables would impede installation or airflow.

Installation Notes

The flexible, low-profile jacket on the C6APC28-GN-05 allows for tighter bend radii compared to standard Cat6A cables, simplifying installation in confined spaces. The compact RJ45 connectors are designed to fit easily into densely populated patch panels and network switches, reducing the risk of blocking adjacent ports. Ensure that all connected network equipment supports Cat6A speeds for optimal performance.
