Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable

The Tripp Lite N201-S6N-BL is a 6-inch Cat6 Ethernet cable built for gigabit networking. It uses 28 AWG stranded UTP conductors and a PVC jacket that is over 38% slimmer than standard Cat6 cables. Snagless molded RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs during repeated insertion and removal. The blue colour aids quick visual identification in dense patch panels.

Ideal for high-density racks

Installers who route cables through crowded cable-management panels or shallow enclosures will benefit from the reduced diameter and flexible stranded construction. It connects computers, routers, switches, servers, modems and hubs at up to 1 Gbps. Buyers who need longer runs, outdoor-rated jackets, shielded construction or PoE budgets beyond standard Cat6 limits should look at other cable types.

Snagless boots and slim profile change daily

The snagless boots prevent broken tabs that cause intermittent links, reducing re-termination work during moves or upgrades. The 38% slimmer profile lets more cables fit in existing vertical managers and improves airflow around dense switch ports. No software, drivers or additional accessories are bundled; the cable is a passive copper link ready for immediate use.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports must already be available on my router or switch for this 6-inch cable to connect?

Both ends use standard RJ45 male connectors, so any two free Gigabit Ethernet ports on a router, switch, server or modem will accept the cable directly.

Will the 28 AWG slim profile fit cleanly alongside thicker Cat6 cables already routed in my patch panel?

The cable is over 38% slimmer than standard Cat6, making it much easier to route through crowded cable management panels without blocking adjacent ports.

How can I confirm the link is running at the rated Gigabit speed after I plug it in?

Check the port LEDs on both connected devices — a steady or blinking amber/green Gigabit indicator shows the 1 Gbps link is active.
