High-Performance Network Cabling
The flat Cat.6a U/FTP cable delivers professional-grade network performance with 500MHz bandwidth and supports speeds up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The STP (shielded twisted pair) design provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference, making it ideal for high-density rack environments. With AWG36 stranded copper conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors, this cable ensures reliable, long-lasting connectivity for mission-critical network infrastructure.
Modular Cassette System
Designed to fit the Patchbox One Frame (holds up to 24 cassettes), each cassette uses a clever pulley mechanism to retract and store excess cable length. This innovative system frees up to 50% more rack space compared to traditional cable managers, improves airflow for cooler-running equipment, and speeds up installation and maintenance by up to 10x. Simply pull the cable to your desired length and let the cassette store the rest - cables stay neat, organized, and tangle-free.
Perfect for Professional IT Environments
Whether you're outfitting a data centre, server room, network closet, or AV rack, the Patchbox One Cassette 30RU is engineered for professional network installers, IT technicians, and system integrators who demand organized, efficient, and scalable cable management. The yellow cable colour is perfect for identifying specific network segments, VLANs, or applications at a glance, reducing troubleshooting time and minimizing downtime.
