Nippon Labs SLCAT6-28-3RD 28 AWG Cat6 network ethernet cable 3ft Red

Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable for tight installs

This 3 ft red Cat6 patch cable uses 28 AWG stranded conductors and a narrow snagless boot to fit high-density panels and crowded rack units. It terminates in gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends and is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth. The pure bare copper wiring supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet while remaining backward compatible with slower links.

Snagless boot eases routing in dense racks

The slim profile and snagless latch release allow the cable to slide through tight bundles without catching on adjacent ports. Stranded 28 AWG conductors make the cable more flexible than solid-core alternatives, reducing strain on switch ports during moves. Take care not to exceed the minimum bend radius for 28 AWG wire when dressing the run.

Verify port spacing and length before ordering

Confirm that the 3 ft reach matches the distance between your switch and device, as the ultra-slim jacket offers no slack for long runs. Ensure the equipment uses standard RJ45 ports; the narrow boot is designed for high-density 45 mm pitch panels but will also seat in wider spacing. Buyers needing longer runs or solid-core cable for in-wall use should choose a different construction.
