Description

Product Description
The D-Link CAT6A 1 Meter Patch Cord is a premium short-length network cable designed for high-speed data communication between devices such as switches, routers, patch panels, and computers. Built to Category 6A standards, it provides enhanced performance compared to CAT6, supporting higher bandwidth and improved signal integrity.

This patch cord is typically constructed with 24AWG solid or stranded copper conductors, ensuring reliable conductivity and minimal signal loss. Its twisted-pair structure reduces crosstalk and external interference, making it ideal for stable networking in enterprise and data center environments.

Supporting frequencies up to 500 MHz and speeds up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (depending on network equipment and distance), this 1-meter cable is perfect for short, clean rack and device connections. The molded RJ45 connectors ensure secure fitment and consistent performance.

Its compact length makes it especially suitable for server racks and structured cabling setups where neat cable management and high-speed performance are both required.
