Nippon Labs SLCAT6-28-14BL network ethernet cable 14 ft Cat 6 28 AWG 550MHz Blue

Compact Cat 6 cable for dense setups

This 14 ft Cat 6 patch cable uses a 28 AWG ultra-slim profile to fit tight cable runs in offices and data centres. It connects routers, switches, NAS units, VoIP phones and PoE devices with standard RJ45 ends. The stranded bare copper conductors keep the link reliable for everyday networking tasks. Backward compatibility covers existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet gear.

Thermals noise and power draw

Passive copper construction means the cable generates no heat and adds no audible noise to the installation. It draws zero power of its own, so it does not affect the power budget of connected switches or PoE endpoints. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance over time. The UTP design avoids the bulk and grounding complications of shielded alternatives.

Snagless boot and slim diameter

The narrow snagless boot prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during moves or maintenance. At 28 AWG the jacket is significantly thinner than standard Cat 6, improving airflow in high-density panels and reducing strain on port blocks. Pure bare copper conductors rated to 550 MHz support 10-Gigabit Ethernet across the full 14 ft length. Blue colour coding helps identify cable runs at a glance.
