- TypeOthers
- ColorWhite
- Saves over 50 percent space with 28-AWG slim design
- Easier handling and airflow from wider patch spacing
- Reduces cable management needs with flexible 28-AWG build
- Fits more cables in 1U or 2U patch panels
- Meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 for 10G performance at 500 MHz
Slim 28-AWG cable for high-density racks
This 7-metre white patch lead uses a 28-AWG stranded construction that occupies less than half the bundle area of conventional cables. It is built for 10-gigabit links in crowded telecom rooms, data centres and other high-density 10G networking applications where rack space is at a premium.
CM-rated PVC jacket runs cool in tight bundles
The unshielded UTP design meets CM PVC flame requirements and maintains airflow between patched connections. Reduced bulk lowers thermal density in vertical managers and 1U or 2U panels, helping equipment stay within normal operating temperatures without extra cooling effort.
Meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 up to 500 MHz
Certified to the 568 standard, the cable supports sustained 10-gigabit throughput at 500 MHz across its full length. Snagless boots protect the latch during frequent moves, adds and changes, so performance remains consistent under continuous load rather than only in short bursts.

Questions about this item
How do I route the 28-AWG cable in a 1U patch panel without a cable manager?
The slim 28-AWG diameter leaves enough space between ports to route cables by hand and still meet the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 performance standard for 10G links.
When will the CM-rated PVC jacket need replacement in a telecom room?
The CM PVC jacket is rated for in-wall and general indoor use; replace it if the sheath shows cracks, kinks or colour change from heat or cleaning chemicals.
At what length does the 500-MHz stranded cable hit its attenuation limit for 10GBASE-T?
Stranded 28-AWG patch cables support the full 10GBASE-T channel up to the standard 10-metre patch-cord allowance; longer runs require solid-core horizontal cable.
