The Ubiquiti UniFi Etherlighting Patch Cable (Model: UACC-Cable-Patch-EL-0.15M-W) is a 0.15-meter (150 mm) ultra-thin Cat6 patch cable engineered to optimize patch panel routing, equipment interconnections, and port aesthetics in high-density rack deployments. Built as part of the UniFi Etherlighting system, the cable features specialized translucent RJ45 connectors designed to transmit custom LED status lights emitted directly from Etherlighting-capable UniFi switches (such as Pro Max and Enterprise series), providing instant visual feedback on VLAN assignments, link speeds, and connection status.
Constructed with an exceptionally thin 2.5 mm outer diameter jacket and 30 AWG stranded copper wire, the UACC-Cable-Patch-EL-0.15M-W significantly reduces cable clutter and front-rack bulk compared to standard Cat6 cabling. This minimal footprint enhances airflow across active switch ports and patch panels while ensuring a tight bend radius without performance degradation or signal crosstalk. Tested to meet full Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance standards, it is an ideal solution for 1U patch panel-to-switch cross-connects where minimal cable slack and maximum visibility are required.
Comprehensive Key Features:
Etherlighting Translucent Boot Design: Custom translucent RJ45 boots allow switch port Etherlighting LEDs to illuminate through the connector for real-time location and VLAN identification.
Ultra-Slim Cable Profile: Features a 2.5 mm outer diameter jacket that minimizes clutter and drastically improves rack thermal airflow.
Category 6 Performance Rating: Supports high-speed data transmission rates up to 10 Gbps over short interconnect distances.
High-Flexibility Construction: 30 AWG stranded copper conductors enable an extremely tight bend radius without stress fatigue or signal attenuation.
Short-Reach 0.15m Length: Specifically sized for direct adjacent port-to-patch panel connections, eliminating messy cable loops.
Seamless UniFi Aesthetic: Durable white PVC jacket designed to match the signature aesthetic of Ubiquiti rackmount hardware.
