Description

Our AV:Link Cat6a FTP flat patch lead gives you a tidy way to run a wired network connection where space is tight. The cable uses oxygen-free 30AWG pure copper twisted pair conductors, with individual pair aluminium foil screens (FTP shielding) that guard against alien crosstalk from nearby cables. That shielding matters most in busy installations where several leads sit close together, keeping your data clean and reliable.

The flat design is what sets this lead apart from a standard round patch lead (US: patch cord). At 7.6mm wide and just 2.6mm thick, it slips neatly into narrow trunking or sits flush when chased across walls and ceilings, so you can hide the run without bulky conduit. The snag-free connectors clip in cleanly and pull out without catching, which helps when you are working behind furniture or in a crowded comms cabinet.

This 3.0m lead supports frequencies up to 500MHz and data transfer rates up to 10Gbps, so it handles high-speed connections for computers, network switches, IP cameras and games consoles. It is a sensible choice for professional installations as well as home setups where you want a wired link that stays out of the way. Shorter lengths come in a sealed retail bag, so they are easy to store and stock. If you need a wired connection that performs well and keeps a low profile, this is a solid, dependable option.

Frequently Asked

What is the difference between a flat and round Ethernet lead?

A flat lead like this one measures just 2.6mm thick, so it fits into narrow trunking and sits flush when chased across walls or ceilings. Round leads are bulkier and harder to hide. Both carry the same signal, so the choice comes down to how you plan to route the cable.

What speed does this Cat6a lead support?

It supports data transfer rates up to 10Gbps and frequencies up to 500MHz, which suits high-speed wired networking for computers, switches, IP cameras and more.

What does FTP shielding mean?

FTP stands for foiled twisted pair. Each pair of conductors has its own aluminium foil screen, which protects against alien crosstalk from other cables running nearby and helps keep your data stable.

Is this lead suitable for professional installations?

Yes. The shielded construction, snag-free connectors and low-profile flat design make it well suited to professional installs where space is limited, as well as home wiring projects.

Are the conductors solid copper?

Yes. The lead uses oxygen-free 30AWG pure copper twisted pair conductors, which give a reliable connection for high-speed data.

Will the connectors catch when I route the cable?

No. The RJ45 connectors are snag-free, so they clip in and pull out cleanly without catching on other cables or fittings.
