CAT6A U/FTP slimline data center ethernet cables have a smaller diameter than regular CAT 6A patch cables (3.8 mm versus 5.9 mm). The bending radius is also smaller compared to regular patch cables. All this ensures better airflow in the network cabinet.
Although the ISO/IEC and TIA standards prescribe the use of patch cords between 22 and 26 AWG, it is possible to use 32 AWG patch cables. This results in higher attenuation, especially at higher frequencies. ACT therefore advises a shorter permanent link length than with regular 24 AWG patch cords. So that this high attenuation can be compensated.
In addition, ACT advises a maximum bundle size of 24 cables in PoE applications. So that temperature increases in the cables (when using PoE applications) can be limited. The current standard, (ANSI TSB-184-A), limits the maximum temperature increase to less than 15 degrees Celsius above ambient temperature, for the central cable in a bundle.
