Overview

Experience High-Speed Networking with a Sleek, Space-Saving Design

Monoprice SlimRun Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cables are engineered to deliver exceptional frequency characteristics and data transfer speeds in high-density data environments. The ultra-slim 30AWG cable and narrow boot design reduce congestion, making them ideal for data centers and server rooms.

  • Cable Type: Cat6A
  • Gauge: 30AWG
  • Shielding: S/FTP (Double Shielded)
  • Diameter: 0.18"
  • Compliance: Component Level, CM
  • Design: Snagless, SlimRun Series

Key Features

Component level in‑wall rated CM for server grade applications.

Superior Performance: The superior high frequency characteristics and 10G data transmission rates make these cables ideal for critical server grade networking equipment, such as cloud computing, video surveillance, and online high resolution video streaming.

S/FTP Shielding: The twisted pairs are individually shielded and are paired with shielded plugs with 50um gold plated contacts to repel EMI in electrically noisy environments.

Snagless and Narrow Boot Design: The narrow and snagless boot design make these cables the perfect choice for high density environments, such as data centers or telecommunications rooms.

Reduces Congestion in High Density Spaces: Designed for high density environments where space is a premium, the ultraslim 30AWG cable and narrow boot design reduces congestion and simplifies moves, additions, and changes. This means along with saving space, you also save time and money.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Achieves superior high-frequency characteristics and 10G data transmission rates for demanding network environments.
  • Provides robust S/FTP shielding with individually shielded twisted pairs and 50µm gold plated contacts to minimize EMI.
  • Features a snagless and narrow boot design, which is highly advantageous for use in high-density installations.
  • Reduces cable congestion in compact spaces due to its ultraslim 30AWG cable and narrow boot design.
  • Rated CM for in-wall use at the component level, making it suitable for server-grade applications and permanent installations.

👎 Cons

  • The 2ft length might be too short for certain network setups, requiring careful planning of equipment placement.
  • As a Cat6A cable, it might be an overspecification for home users with basic internet needs who won't utilize 10G speeds.
  • The specialized shielding and slim design contribute to a potentially higher cost compared to standard unshielded patch cables.
  • The narrow boot design, while beneficial for density, might offer less grip for users who frequently plug and unplug cables.
  • Available only in white, which might not aesthetically match all network rack or office environments.
