Blue slim Cat6 patch cable 14 ft with snagless boots

C2G Canada

C2G Canada C2G02214 14 ft Cat6 UTP 28AWG Blue network ethernet cable

SKU CH-WCZ3-YHCT9 MPN C2G02214

A 14 ft Cat6 UTP patch cable with 28 AWG conductors that are 36 % thinner than standard, improving airflow and bend radius for dense installations

  • Slim 28 AWG design cuts cable diameter by 36 % for tighter routing
  • Smaller bend radius eases installation through dense cable management panels
  • Snagless molded boot prevents latch damage and adds strain relief during pulls
  • Cat6 UTP construction supports bandwidth-intensive voice, data and video distribution
  • 14 ft (4.27 m) length suits typical rack-to-rack or desk-to-panel runs

Slim Cat6 patch cable for dense racks

This 14 ft Cat6 UTP cable uses 28 AWG conductors to achieve a 36% diameter reduction over standard Cat6. The slimmer profile improves airflow in high-density datacentre cabinets and eases routing through cable-management panels. A moulded snagless boot protects the latch during installation and adds strain relief. The blue jacket supports colour-coded network layouts.

28 AWG conductor gauge

The cable is built with 28 AWG copper conductors instead of the 22 to 26 AWG range recommended by ANSI/TIA-568-C.2. This thinner wire increases attenuation, so the link budget must accommodate the higher loss. The trade-off is a tighter bend radius and significantly reduced bulk, which is the decisive factor for crowded patch panels and high-port-count switches.

Fits high-density patching environments

The reduced diameter frees space in vertical cable managers and allows tighter bundles without blocking switch exhaust airflow. Installers gain easier access to adjacent ports because the snagless boot prevents latch damage during frequent moves. Buyers who need full ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 compliance or longer runs without additional signal budget should select a standard-gauge Cat6 cable instead.

Questions about this item

What does the 14 ft length mean for a real installation?

It gives you roughly 4.27 metres of reach between a switch and a device, enough for most desk or rack runs without excess slack.

The cable is Cat6 UTP with 28 AWG conductors — what does that cap in practice?

It supports Gigabit Ethernet, but the smaller 28 AWG wires increase attenuation so the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 recommendation of 22-26 AWG is not met.

How much space does the 28 AWG build save in a cable manager?

The slimmer profile reduces diameter by 36 percent, allowing tighter bends and better airflow through management panels.
