DSIT CAT6a U/UTP 100% koper ethernet-patchkabel, 0,15 m, geel

Network technicians and home users often need a very short, reliable patch cable to connect devices in tight spaces—such as between a patch panel and a switch in a rack, or from a wall outlet to a desktop computer. This DSIT CAT6a cable, just 0.15 meters long, eliminates excess cable clutter while maintaining full 10 Gigabit performance. Its yellow jacket makes identification easy in dense cabling environments.

Why choose it

Built with 100% copper conductors, this cable ensures superior signal integrity and lower resistance compared to copper-clad aluminium (CCA) alternatives. The stranded construction offers flexibility for frequent moves or tight bends, while the gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and maintain reliable contact over thousands of insertions. The U/UTP design is suitable for most office and home environments where electromagnetic interference is low, and it remains backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting patch panels to switches in server racks
• Linking network devices in confined spaces such as behind desks or wall-mounted TVs
• High-speed LAN connections for gaming, streaming, and large file transfers
• Data centre cross-connects where short, colour-coded cables simplify management

Good to know

The cable is tested to support 10GBASE-T up to 55 meters in typical installations, though this 0.15 m length is ideal for very short links. The yellow PVC jacket is durable and flame-retardant, meeting standard safety requirements. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling. This cable is part of DSIT's professional networking line, ensuring consistent quality and compliance with industry standards.
