The new KAT6A LIGHT patch cables from the SLIM brand set new standards in network technology. These thin cables facilitate patching for 10 Gigabit applications thanks to their extremely flexible and slim design.

The LIGHT patch cables are round, twisted in pairs, shielded, and meet the requirements for transmitting 10, 100, 1000 MBit, and now even 10 Gigabit.

Another significant advantage of the LIGHT patch cables is the flame-retardant outer jacket material and a special RJ45 connector that prevents the clip from breaking. The clip can be bent back and forth hundreds of times without breaking.

Power over Ethernet transmission according to IEEE802.3af and IEEE802.3at is also possible. Additionally, this cable features our specially developed end design, characterized by easy pressing of the clip and its narrow and short form factor.

Typical applications for the LIGHT patch cables include:

• Overcrowded server or network cabinets or cable ducts
• Switches with high port densities: Very short cables allow for easy patching from switch to switch or switch to panel without a cable management panel
• Connecting end devices at the desk (VoIP phones, printers, PCs, laptops), as the cables are extremely flexible and easy to lay on a desk
• Applications in industry or manufacturing where Ethernet connections are needed but space is limited
• As a patch cable in the laptop bag for technicians and field service workers
• In private settings, to run a patch cable under the carpet, along the chair rail, or even through a window seal.
