CAT6a flat cables are an updated version of CAT6 flat cables. These flat cables are perfect for installations where you need to save space in IT racks and cabinets. They are also ideal for being laid behind baseboards or under carpets and other floors. All the cables are tested up to 500 MHz / 1000 Mbps (CAT6a standard) and are backwards compatible with CAT6, CAT5e, and CAT5 cables. Each cable is manufactured with a snaggles that prevents the connector from being damaged when you install the cable in tight spaces.
