Black Cat6 UTP slim patch cable with snagless boot, 15 ft length

C2G Canada

C2G Canada C2G02209 15ft 28AWG Cat6 network ethernet cable

SKU CH-3CRK-WA7G2 MPN C2G02209

Slim Cat6 UTP patch cable with 28 AWG conductors reduces diameter by 36% for better airflow and easier routing in dense installations

  • Slim 28 AWG design cuts cable diameter by 36 % for tighter routing
  • 15 ft length with snagless boot protects the latch during installation
  • Cat6 UTP copper construction minimises near-end crosstalk for reliable data links
  • Smaller bend radius than standard Cat6 simplifies high-density panel management
  • Attenuation higher than 22–26 AWG TIA-568-C.2 recommendation — plan runs accordingly

C2G Cat6 Slim Patch Cable 15ft

This C2G Cat6 UTP patch cable measures 15 ft (4.57 m) and uses 28 AWG conductors for a slim profile. The reduced diameter is 36% smaller than a standard Cat6 patch cable. A moulded snagless boot prevents the connector tabs from catching during installation. It is intended for bandwidth-intensive voice, data or video distribution.

Suits high-density racks and tight cable routing

Installers working in crowded patch panels or datacentre cabinets benefit from the smaller bend radius and improved airflow. Buyers who need a cable that complies with the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 conductor-size recommendation of 22-26 AWG should choose a standard-gauge Cat6 cable instead. The higher attenuation of 28 AWG also makes it unsuitable for runs that require the full certified channel length.

28 AWG conductor gauge decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this cable is the right part is the 28 AWG conductor size. It delivers the slim diameter and tight bend radius needed for dense installations, but it does not meet the 22-26 AWG requirement of the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standard and exhibits increased attenuation.

Questions about this item

How do I route the 28 AWG Cat6 cable through a cable management panel without damaging the snagless boot?

The 28 AWG conductors give this cable a smaller bend radius and 36% reduced diameter versus standard Cat6, so it bends easily through tight panels; push the connector straight in rather than rocking the boot to avoid stress on the latch.

Will the 28 AWG conductors need earlier replacement than a 22–26 AWG cable in a permanent installation?

Yes, the smaller 28 AWG conductors increase attenuation and do not meet the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 conductor-size recommendation, so plan to re-certify or replace runs if link margins drop below your switch requirements.

At what length does the 28 AWG gauge start limiting 1 Gbps throughput on this 15 ft patch cable?

At 15 ft the added attenuation from 28 AWG is still within typical 1 Gbps channel budgets, but the cable is not ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 compliant for permanent links, so the gauge limit appears first on longer permanent runs rather than this short patch.
