High-density Cat6 patch cable

This one-foot Cat6 UTP cable is built for crowded network closets and data-centre racks where standard patch cords are too bulky. Its 28 AWG conductors make the jacket 36 % thinner than a regular Cat6 cable, so installers can route it through tight cable-management panels without forcing bends.

Slim profile eases airflow and routing

The reduced diameter leaves more open space between cables, which improves airflow and helps equipment dissipate heat in dense cabinets. Snagless RJ45 boots protect the locking tabs during frequent moves, and the 50-micron gold contacts maintain reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance over the short run.

Suits technicians managing packed racks

Network engineers who need maximum density and easy re-patching will benefit from the flexible, lightweight design. Buyers looking for longer runs, shielded construction or outdoor-rated jackets should consider other cable types.

Questions about this item

Does the 28 AWG gauge limit how long a Gigabit link can run?

The cable meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 patch-cord performance, so 1 ft is well within the supported distance for Gigabit Ethernet.

Will the slim UTP jacket overheat or add fan noise in a packed rack?

The 36 % thinner design improves airflow and heat dissipation, and a passive cable generates no noise of its own.

Do my switch and NIC need special ports for the snagless RJ45 clips?

Standard RJ-45 female ports accept the gold-plated connectors; no proprietary interfaces are required.
