D-Link Cat6A 10G 3M UTP 24 AWG PVC Yellow Round Patch Cord (NCB-6AUYELR1-3)
The D-Link Cat6A 10G 3M UTP Patch Cord is a 3-meter (9.84 ft), 4-pair unshielded twisted pair cable built to carry 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over longer structured cabling runs than a standard 1-meter cord allows. It uses 24 AWG bare copper conductors, HD-PE insulation, and a PVC UL94V-0 jacket rated for 75°C minimum heat resistance, exceeding the thermal tolerance of standard Cat6 cabling. Termination is handled by RJ-45 8P transparent connectors with 30-microinch gold plating and phosphor bronze contact blades, rated for 750 mate/demate cycles. The bright yellow jacket helps technicians track high-priority or high-bandwidth links across longer cable runs in a rack or trunking system. This length suits data centers, server rooms, and network upgrades in Nairobi where a 10G link needs to bridge a greater distance than a 1-meter cord permits.
Key Features
- Cat6A 10G-rated performance over a 3-meter run, extending high-bandwidth connectivity beyond short 1M links
- 24 AWG bare copper conductors with HD-PE insulation for consistent, low-loss signal transmission
- 75°C minimum heat resistance, built for warmer server cabinets and equipment racks
- Gold-plated RJ-45 8P connectors (30U”) with phosphor bronze contact blades for a durable, stable connection
- 750 mate/demate cycle durability rating, suited to frequent reconnection in active network environments

Who This Cable Is Best Suited For
- Data center technicians extending 10G links across a rack or row, where a 1-meter cord falls short of the required reach
- Businesses scaling up server-to-switch bandwidth, connecting equipment placed further apart within a cabinet or server room
- IT teams color-coding longer high-priority runs, using yellow to flag critical circuits across trunking and patch panels
