Elevate your high-density networking with our compact CAT6A Slim Shielded Bulk Ethernet Cable, designed for interference-free 10GBASE-T performance in tight spaces. Featuring U/FTP foil shielding per pair, flexible 28 AWG stranded copper conductors, and a flame-retardant CM PVC jacket, this indoor-rated bulk cable supports up to 750MHz bandwidth for seamless 10 Gb/s data transmission up to 100 meters, ideal for custom patch cords, crowded racks, PoE++ devices, and noise-prone environments like hospitals, offices, and data centers.

Engineered for the most demanding high-density installations, this ultra-premium cable combines four exceptional features rarely found together: slim 28AWG profile for space savings, U/FTP shielding for maximum EMI protection, stranded construction for flexibility, and full CAT6A 10GBASE-T performance. The individual foil shielding on each pair provides superior isolation compared to overall shielding alone, while the slim profile offers a diameter up to 40% smaller than standard CAT6A. With 750 MHz bandwidth exceeding ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards and ETL verification, it's the ultimate solution for high-density 10G environments that require both space efficiency and maximum interference immunity.
