Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable

The Cable Leader 2ft Cat6 Slim Ethernet Cable is a white RJ45 patch lead built for tight spaces. Its 3.6 mm jacket and 28 AWG stranded bare copper conductors keep dense bundles tidy behind desks, in wall plates or inside patch panels. Gold-plated 50-micron contacts and a 4-pair spline core maintain signal integrity at 250 MHz. The transparent snagless boot protects the locking clip during frequent re-patching.

Ideal for dense installs, not long runs

Installers who need maximum cable density in racks, patch panels or behind furniture will benefit from the slim profile. The 2 ft length suits short point-to-point links such as switch-to-panel or device-to-wall-plate connections. Buyers needing longer horizontal runs, shielded construction or solid-conductor cable for permanent in-wall installation should look at other cable types.

3.6 mm jacket thickness decides fit

The 3.6 mm outer diameter is the single specification that determines whether this cable fits your high-density patch panel, keystone jack or cable-management channel. If your routing space accepts 3.6 mm cables, the Cat6 250 MHz rating and gigabit support will handle the traffic; if the space is tighter, a different cable is required.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 2ft Cat6 cable in a high-density patch panel without snagging the locking clip?

Push the transparent slim snagless boot straight into the RJ45 port until the clip clicks; the 3.6mm jacket and 28AWG stranded conductors keep the bend radius tight so adjacent cables in the C6116 family stay neat.

What maintenance will the 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts need over time?

The gold plating resists corrosion in normal indoor use; reseat the plug only if a link becomes unstable after moves or re-patching.

What is the first performance limit that appears on a sustained 250MHz Gigabit run?

The 28AWG UTP construction meets the Cat6 250MHz rating, so the cable itself is not the bottleneck; the switch or NIC port speed will cap throughput first.
