SlimRun Cat6 cable for tight spaces

This Monoprice 114812 patch cable uses a 28AWG conductor with a .149 inch diameter to fit high-density racks and crowded patch panels. The 5 ft green length suits short runs between switches, servers or wall outlets. Component testing confirms 550 MHz performance for reliable gigabit links.

Suited for dense installs; not for long runs

Installers who need maximum airflow and easy cable management in cabinets will benefit from the slim profile and narrow snagless boots. Buyers who need longer distances should look at something else because this listing covers only the 5 ft option. PoE devices are supported within the Cat6 standard.

Simple RJ45 connection with snagless boots

The moulded boots protect the locking tab during repeated inserts and removals, reducing the chance of a broken clip. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire codes, so the cable can be run in riser spaces. No tools are required beyond a standard RJ45 port.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports to use this 5 ft Cat6 cable?

Any network device with a standard RJ45 jack — router, switch, PC, NAS, printer, or PoE access point — will accept the snagless plugs on this 114812 cable.

Will the 0.149 inch diameter and narrow boot fit beside older Cat5e patch cords in a crowded patch panel?

Yes, the SlimRun 28AWG design is significantly thinner than typical Cat5e cables, so it routes cleanly alongside legacy cords without blocking adjacent ports.

How can I verify the 550 MHz component-rated link is performing correctly after installation?

Run a cable certifier or the link diagnostics on your switch; a passing Cat6 component test at 550 MHz confirms the pure bare copper UTP is terminating cleanly.
