Slim 3.6mm patch cable for dense installs

This two-foot Cat6 patch cable uses a 3.6 mm jacket to fit cleanly into crowded patch panels, wall plates and behind-desk runs. It is built for installers and home users who need a compact, gigabit-capable link without the bulk of standard cables. The green colour helps identify the run at a glance. It works with any RJ45 port on routers, switches, PCs, consoles or smart TVs.

Backward-compatible Cat6 at 250MHz

The cable meets the Cat6 standard at 250 MHz and drops straight into existing Cat5e infrastructure without re-termination. Four twisted pairs around a spline core and 50-micron gold-plated contacts keep crosstalk low and signal integrity high across the full length. Stranded 28 AWG bare copper conductors maintain flexibility for repeated re-patching while preserving gigabit throughput.

Low-profile snagless boot aids airflow

A transparent slim snagless boot protects the locking clip during routing so dense bundles stay neat and easy to manage. The reduced diameter improves airflow in high-density racks and tight behind-desk spaces compared with thicker cables. RoHS compliant construction with UL and ETL verification confirms the materials meet recognised safety and environmental requirements.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.6 mm slim jacket generate extra heat in a crowded patch panel?

The 28 AWG stranded bare copper and 3.6 mm jacket reduce bulk and improve airflow, so heat build-up in dense bundles is lower than with thicker cables.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to work?

It plugs straight into any router, switch, patch panel, keystone jack, PC, console or smart TV that presents a standard RJ45 socket.

Will the 250 MHz Cat6 cable slow down a Cat5e switch I keep?

The cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, so it runs at the switch's rated speed without any configuration change.
