StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, 14 ft, Gray, U/FTP, N6APATSTP34GRS-14FT

StarTech 14ft Gray Ultra Slim Cat6A Ethernet Cable, Snagless, FTP, Bare Copper Wire, 34AWG Slim RJ45 Patch Cord

Connect switches, routers, patch panels, and other high-speed network devices with the StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, part number N6APATSTP34GRS-14FT. Designed for dependable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, this gray network cable supports Cat6a performance up to 500 MHz while helping streamline cable management in high-density IT environments.

Improved Airflow and Routing

The StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a patch cord is approximately 40% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, making it easier to route through crowded server racks, patch panels, and equipment cabinets. Its flexible construction supports tighter bends and simplifies installation in confined spaces while allowing improved passive airflow and easier access for troubleshooting. Snagless RJ45 connectors help protect the locking clips during installation and removal, reducing the risk of snags or breakage.

Reliable, Shielded Construction

This cable uses 34 AWG pure bare copper conductors in a four-pair U/FTP design with aluminum Mylar foil shielding and a drain wire to help reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts support precise mating and reliable signal transmission, while the durable thermoplastic elastomer jacket provides flexibility for everyday network installations. The translucent RJ45 boots allow port-LED light to remain visible for faster link verification. This cable is RoHS-compliant and is not rated for Power over Ethernet applications.

Tested Cat6a Performance

Each StarTech.com N6APATSTP34GRS-14FT cable is individually tested to meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 requirements for Cat6a performance, including signal integrity, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Return Loss (RL). With its slim profile, shielded pairs, and durable connectors, this cable is a practical choice for reliable high-speed networking in edge, on-premises, and professional IT installations. It is backed by a StarTech.com lifetime limited warranty.
