Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable

The Cable Leader 20ft Cat6 Slim Ethernet Cable is a 3.6 mm thick patch lead built for high-density installs. Stranded 28AWG bare copper conductors and a spline core meet the Cat6 250MHz standard for Gigabit Ethernet. Gold-plated 50-micron RJ45 contacts and a transparent snagless boot protect the locking clip during frequent re-patching.

Dense racks and tight desk runs

Installers who need maximum cables per patch panel or clean behind-desk routing will benefit from the reduced diameter. Builders requiring shielded cable for noisy industrial environments or outdoor burial should look at a different construction.

Fits standard RJ45 gear

The cable plugs directly into routers, switches, patch panels, keystone jacks, PCs, consoles and smart TVs without adapters. Its slim profile frees space in crowded cabinets and improves airflow around dense bundles. Multiple lengths and ten colours in the C6116 family simplify port and zone labelling.

Questions about this item

Which RJ45-equipped devices do I already need for this 20 ft Cat6 cable to provide a wired link?

Any router, switch, patch panel, keystone jack, desktop PC, console or smart TV with a standard RJ45 port will accept the cable and carry Gigabit Ethernet at 250 MHz.

Will the 3.6 mm slim jacket and 28 AWG conductors work reliably alongside my existing Cat5e patch cords in the same patch panel?

Yes — the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, so it drops into the same RJ45 ports and runs at Gigabit speeds without replacing older cords.

How can I verify the 50-micron gold-plated contacts and spline core are delivering a clean Gigabit link after I plug it in?

Check the link LEDs on both ports show 1 Gbps and run a speed test or file transfer that saturates near 1 Gbps without packet loss.
