Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable

This 2 ft blue Ethernet cable uses 28 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors to deliver reliable connectivity up to 550 MHz. The snagless ultra-slim design reduces bulk in high-density racks and tight cable management channels. It is built for 10-Gigabit Ethernet while remaining backward compatible with existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit links. Pure copper construction avoids copper-clad aluminium for consistent signal quality.

Ideal for dense racks and short runs

Network administrators and home users who need a flexible, space-saving patch lead for switches, routers, NAS devices or VoIP phones will benefit from the narrow boot and snagless latch. Builders requiring longer reach, thicker gauge for PoE-heavy loads, or outdoor-rated jackets should look at alternatives not covered by this specification.

550 MHz bandwidth rating

The single specification that determines suitability is the verified 550 MHz bandwidth, which confirms support for 10-Gigabit Ethernet over the 2 ft length. If your application demands a higher frequency rating or a different performance class, this cable will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the snagless RJ45 connectors without snapping the release tabs?

Press the connector straight into the port until the tab clicks; the snagless boot protects the latch so it will not catch on adjacent cables when you pull it back out.

Will the gold-plated contacts need cleaning or the stranded 28 AWG conductors need replacing over time?

Gold plating resists corrosion and the bare copper stranded cores are rated for repeated flexing, so no scheduled cleaning or conductor replacement is required.

At what point does the 550 MHz bandwidth limit appear during sustained 10-Gigabit Ethernet traffic?

The cable is specified to 550 MHz, which supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet; the bandwidth ceiling is reached only if you push signalling beyond that frequency.
