Ultra-slim Cat 6 patch cable for dense installs

This 7 ft red Cat 6 cable uses 28 AWG stranded conductors and a narrow snagless boot to fit tight spaces in patch panels, racks or behind desks. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends resist corrosion and maintain signal quality. It is built for home offices, small businesses or data-centre patching where cable bulk is a concern.

Suited for short Gigabit

The ultra-slim profile eases routing through congested cable managers and high-density switch ports. Installers who need longer permanent runs, outdoor burial, plenum-rated jacket or solid-conductor cable for structured wiring should look at a different product type.

550 MHz bandwidth rating

The cable is specified to 550 MHz, which supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet over the 7 ft length provided. If your installation demands a higher certified frequency or a different category rating, this cable will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What devices must I already have to use this Cat 6 cable?

You need two devices with RJ45 ports such as a router, switch, network printer, NAS, VoIP phone or PoE equipment. The cable has RJ45 connectors on both ends.

Does the 550 MHz rating let it run alongside my existing Gigabit Ethernet gear?

Yes. The cable is backward compatible with existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet while supporting up to 550 MHz for 10-Gigabit Ethernet.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering 550 MHz performance after I plug it in?

Run a cable certifier or a 10-Gigabit link test; a stable 10 Gbps connection with low error counts verifies the 550 MHz capability.
