SlimRun Cat6 10 ft cable

The Monoprice 113542 is a 10-foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable built for high-density installations. Its 28AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors measure just 0.149 inches in diameter, reducing congestion in crowded racks or cable trays. The cable carries a 550 MHz bandwidth rating and meets CMR riser specifications for in-wall runs. Snagless narrow-profile boots protect the RJ45 latch during frequent moves, adds, and changes.

Ideal for tight racks; not for high-current PoE

Installers working in dense patch panels, server cabinets, or narrow cable pathways benefit from the ultra-slim profile and flexible stranded construction. The component-tested design ensures reliable channel performance for Gigabit Ethernet links. Builders who need the larger conductor cross-section of standard 28AWG cable for high-current Power over Ethernet applications should select a different gauge. The riser rating also makes it unsuitable for plenum spaces requiring CMP classification.

0.149-inch diameter drives fit

The defining specification is the 0.149-inch outer diameter, which determines whether the cable fits your cable-management density targets. At 3.048 metres long, it reaches typical rack-to-rack or wall-jack-to-device distances without excess slack. Pure bare copper construction satisfies UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety codes for commercial installations. The black jacket provides simple visual identification in colour-coded networks.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.149-inch diameter cable run cooler or draw less power than thicker Cat6 cables?

Ethernet patch cables carry only data signals and negligible DC power, so the 0.149-inch 28AWG SlimRun cable produces no measurable heat and consumes no meaningful power during continuous use.

What devices must I already own for this 10-foot 113542 cable to work?

Two pieces of equipment with standard RJ45 ports — for example a router, switch, PC, NAS, IP camera, or game console — and a free port on each end.

Will this 550 MHz Cat6 cable slow down a Gigabit switch that only has older Cat5e ports?

No; the cable is backward-compatible and will simply operate at the highest speed both linked ports support, so a Cat5e port limits the link to 1 Gbps while the cable itself is rated for higher bandwidth.
