Compact patch cable for tight installs

The Cable Leader 10 ft Cat6 Slim Ethernet Cable is an ultra-thin 3.6 mm purple patch lead built for high-density patch panels, wall plates and behind-desk runs. It uses 28 AWG stranded bare copper conductors around a spline core and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts to deliver a reliable Gigabit connection at 250 MHz. A transparent snagless boot protects the locking clip during routing and re-patching.

Ideal for dense racks and tidy desk runs

Installers who need many cables in a small space will benefit from the slim jacket that improves airflow and bend radius in crowded cabinets. It works with routers, switches, keystone jacks, PCs, consoles and smart TVs for a simple drop-in upgrade from Cat5e. Buyers who need shielded cable for noisy environments or solid-core runs for permanent in-wall installation should look elsewhere.

3.6 mm diameter decides fit

The 3.6 mm outer diameter is the single specification that determines whether this cable fits your patch panel density, cable-management channels or behind-desk routing. If your pathway or port spacing requires a thicker or thinner jacket, this cable will not suit the install.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 10 ft length or another size for my run?

Choose the length that reaches your device with a little slack; the 10 ft version suits typical desk-to-switch or patch-panel-to-wall-plate runs, while shorter or longer C6116 cables are available for tighter or extended routes.

What does the 250 MHz Cat6 rating actually deliver at my router?

It guarantees Gigabit Ethernet throughput at the full 250 MHz bandwidth, so any 1 Gbps port on a router, switch or PC will run at line speed without the cable becoming the bottleneck.

Does the RJ45 connector work with standard keystone jacks and patch panels?

Yes — the 8P8C RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts fit every standard keystone, patch panel, router and switch port, and the slim snagless boot keeps the locking clip clear in dense bundles.
