Cat6a UTP Patch Cable: High-Bandwidth, Cost-Effective Solution for Modern Network Deployments
As digital transformation accelerates across industries, the demand for high-speed, reliable network cabling continues to grow. From small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large data centers, a robust cabling system is essential to support bandwidth-intensive applications such as cloud computing, video conferencing, and IoT connectivity. Our Cat6a UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) Patch Cable is engineered to deliver exceptional performance, versatility, and cost efficiency, making it the ideal choice for building scalable and high-performance network infrastructures.
1. Product Overview & Core Technical Parameters
The Cat6a UTP Patch Cable is an advanced unshielded cabling solution that complies with the latest international standards, supporting 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) transmission up to 100 meters. Unlike shielded cables, it adopts a high-density twisted pair design to minimize crosstalk and signal interference, ensuring stable data transmission in most common network environments. Below are the detailed technical parameters:
Standard Compliance: ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, ISO/IEC 11801:2017, EN 50173-1 (Cat6a Class EA)
Transmission Performance: Supports bandwidth up to 500 MHz, enabling 10Gbps data transmission at 100m; backward compatible with Cat6, Cat5e, and lower categories
Conductor: 24AWG (0.51mm) stranded oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor, purity ≥ 99.99%, ensuring low signal attenuation
Cabling Structure: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) – 4 pairs of twisted pairs with optimized twist ratio to reduce Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT)
Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) or PVC, flame retardant grade: UL94 V-0, RoHS compliant
Connector: RJ45 8P8C, gold-plated contacts (plating thickness ≥ 50u"), with snagless boot design for anti-bending and anti-dust protection
Operating Temperature: -20℃ ~ 70℃, adaptable to indoor and semi-outdoor environments
Cable Length: 0.5m, 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 20m, or customized according to customer requirements
2. Key Technical Advantages
2.1 High-Speed & High-Bandwidth Transmission
With a maximum bandwidth of 500 MHz, our Cat6a UTP Patch Cable supports 10Gbps data transmission over 100 meters, which is twice the bandwidth of Cat6 cables (250 MHz). This high-bandwidth capability enables seamless support for bandwidth-intensive applications such as 4K/8K video streaming, large file transfers, cloud storage, and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). The optimized twisted pair design ensures excellent signal integrity, minimizing packet loss and latency even at peak transmission speeds.
2.2 Cost-Effective & Easy Installation
As an unshielded solution, the Cat6a UTP Patch Cable eliminates the additional cost of shielding materials and grounding components, offering a more cost-effective option compared to shielded cables (e.g., SFTP, STP). Its lightweight and flexible design makes it easy to route, bend, and install in tight spaces such as ceiling cavities, wall ducts, and network cabinets. The snagless boot on the connector prevents the cable from being damaged during installation and reduces stress on the cable-jacket interface, extending the service life.
2.3 Excellent Anti-Crosstalk Performance
Our Cat6a UTP Patch Cable features a 4-pair twisted structure with a precise twist ratio for each pair. This design effectively reduces Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT), and Alien Crosstalk (AXT), which are the main factors affecting signal quality in unshielded cables. The optimized pair twisting ensures that the cable can maintain stable transmission performance even in high-density cabling environments (e.g., data center server racks).
2.4 Durable & Reliable Construction
We use high-purity oxygen-free copper conductors to ensure low insertion loss and return loss, guaranteeing consistent signal transmission. The gold-plated RJ45 connectors provide excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, reducing contact resistance and ensuring reliable connections. The jacket material (LSZH/PVC) is selected for its superior wear resistance, aging resistance, and flame retardant properties. The LSZH jacket is environmentally friendly, emitting minimal smoke and no toxic gases in case of fire, making it suitable for public buildings and confined spaces.
3. Typical Application Scenarios
Our Cat6a UTP Patch Cable is widely applicable to various network environments that require high speed, reliability, and cost efficiency. Typical application scenarios include:
Enterprise & Office Networks: Ideal for SMEs, large enterprises, financial institutions, and government offices, supporting daily network operations such as video conferences, cloud collaboration, document sharing, and CRM systems.
Data Centers & Server Rooms: Used for connecting servers, switches, storage area networks (SAN), and network attached storage (NAS) devices, supporting high-density 10Gbps transmission in data centers.
Educational Institutions: Suitable for schools, colleges, and universities, supporting online teaching, e-learning platforms, and campus network deployments that require high bandwidth for multiple concurrent users.
Retail & Commercial Spaces: Applicable to shopping malls, supermarkets, and retail stores, connecting POS systems, security cameras, Wi-Fi access points, and digital signage, ensuring smooth operation of business systems.
Home & Smart Residences: Perfect for high-performance home networks, supporting 4K/8K smart TVs, gaming consoles, home offices, and IoT devices (e.g., smart speakers, security systems), providing a stable and fast network experience.
4. Quality Control & Certification
We implement strict quality control measures throughout the entire production process to ensure product reliability. From raw material procurement (copper conductors, jacket materials, connectors) to cable assembly and final testing, every step is subject to rigorous inspection. Our Cat6a UTP Patch Cable has obtained multiple international certifications, including UL, CE, RoHS, and FCC. Each batch of products undergoes 100% performance testing, including bandwidth, insertion loss, return loss, crosstalk, and continuity, ensuring that every cable delivered to customers meets the highest quality standards.
