Slim 28 AWG Cat6a patch cable
This white Cat6a patch cable uses 28 AWG stranded conductors and measures 4.1 mm in diameter, roughly half the thickness of a typical 24 AWG cable. It is rated to 500 MHz and terminated with snagless RJ-45 plugs on both ends. The 14.76 ft length suits rack-to-rack or patch-panel runs in high-density environments.
Suits dense racks; not for rugged or shielded needs
Installers who need maximum cable density and easier handling in crowded telecom rooms will benefit from the slim profile and reduced bundle volume. Buyers who require shielded construction for noisy electrical environments or a heavier jacket for repeated floor-level abuse should look at something else.
28 AWG stranded conductors decide fit
The 28 AWG stranded wire set gives the cable its narrow 4.1 mm diameter and high flexibility, enabling tight bends and 50 percent space savings in vertical managers. If the project demands the mechanical strength of solid-core or a larger gauge, this cable will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item
What network ports must my equipment have to use this cable?
Both devices need an RJ-45 female port; the cable has RJ-45 male connectors on each end.
Will this slim cable fit alongside standard 24-AWG patch cords in my existing patch panel?
Yes. At 4.1 mm diameter it is almost half the size of a typical 24-AWG cord, so it sits easily in the same panel without crowding.
How can I confirm the link is running at Category 6a performance after I plug it in?
A cable tester or switch port LED showing a Category 6a connection confirms the 500 MHz link is active.
