High-Density Cat6 Patch Cable

This StarTech.com N6PAT6BLS is a Category 6 UTP patch cord built for Gigabit Ethernet links in crowded racks. At 6 ft long, it uses 28 AWG copper conductors that make the jacket 36% thinner than a standard Cat6 cable. The slim profile improves airflow and eases routing through dense cable-management panels. Blue colour coding helps identify connections at a glance.

Suited For Tight Rack Installations

Installers working in high-density data centres or packed network closets benefit from the reduced diameter and snagless RJ45 boots. The 50-micron gold contacts resist corrosion over repeated mating cycles. Builders who need shielded cabling for noisy electrical environments should select a different construction. Buyers requiring longer runs must choose another length.

28 AWG Slim Conductor Gauge

The 28 AWG conductor size is the critical specification that enables the 36% thinner profile and the improved airflow in dense installations. It meets the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 patch-cord performance standard for Cat6. Verify that your switches and patch panels accept 28 AWG conductors before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 6 ft blue slim cable or a longer length for my rack?

The 6 ft length suits short patch-panel runs; longer lengths are separate SKUs not covered here.

What does the Cat6 rating deliver in my Gigabit switch?

It meets the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 patch-cord spec, supporting full 1 Gbps throughput over the 6 ft link.

How does the 28 AWG UTP construction affect my installation?

The 28 AWG conductors make the cable 36% thinner than standard Cat6, easing routing in dense panels and improving airflow.
