StarTech.com Ultra Slim Cat6a Ethernet Cable, 3 ft, White, N6APATSTP34WHS-3FT

StarTech 3ft White 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 N6APATSTP34WHS-3FT. This 3-foot white patch cable supports reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance and is designed for dense IT environments where conventional network cables can restrict airflow or make routing difficult.

Improved Airflow and Easier Routing

The Ultra Slim Cat6a patch cord is approximately 40% thinner than standard Cat6a cables, helping improve passive airflow and heat dissipation in crowded server racks and patch panels. Its flexible construction makes it easier to route through narrow gaps, around equipment, and between closely spaced devices. Snagless RJ45 connectors help protect the locking clips during installation and removal, reducing the risk of snags or connector damage.

Reliable, Durable Construction

This StarTech.com cable uses 34 AWG pure bare copper conductors and U/FTP pair-level foil shielding to help reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts support precise mating and dependable signal transmission, while the flexible thermoplastic elastomer jacket provides durability for routine handling and installation. A translucent RJ45 boot allows port LED light to remain visible, helping technicians check network links more quickly. The cable is RoHS-compliant and is not rated for Power over Ethernet applications.

Tested Cat6a Performance

Each N6APATSTP34WHS-3FT cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer to meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 requirements for Cat6a performance up to 500 MHz. Testing helps verify consistent signal integrity, including low Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss (RL), for dependable high-speed connectivity in edge, on-premises, and enterprise network installations. Backed by StarTech.com's lifetime warranty, this cable provides a practical solution for compact, high-density cabling deployments.
