Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable

The Cable Leader 7ft Cat6 Slim Ethernet Cable is a 3.6 mm diameter UTP patch lead built to the Cat6 standard for Gigabit Ethernet at 250MHz. It uses 28AWG bare copper conductors with a spline core and gold-plated RJ45 contacts, and its transparent snagless boot protects the locking clip in dense bundles. The gray jacket suits tidy behind-desk runs, patch panels and wall plates.

Suited for tight routing, not for shielded needs

Builders who need a thin cable for high-density patch panels, keystone jacks or cramped behind-desk spaces will benefit from the slim profile and improved airflow. Buyers who require shielded construction for electrically noisy environments should look elsewhere, as this cable is unshielded UTP.

3.6 mm jacket diameter

The single specification that decides fit is the 3.6 mm outer diameter, which determines whether the cable fits your patch-panel density, cable-management channels and bend-radius constraints.

Questions about this item

What does the 250 MHz Cat6 rating actually deliver in a real installation?

It provides a certified Gigabit Ethernet link up to the full channel length, with headroom above the Cat5e baseline for reliable throughput on routers, switches and PCs.

How does the RJ45 interface limit speed on this cable?

The 8P8C plug caps the connection at 1 Gbps; the 50-micron gold contacts ensure that the Gigabit signal passes cleanly without bottlenecking at the jack.

Will the 3.6 mm jacket and snagless boot fit cleanly into a crowded patch panel?

Yes — the 28 AWG slim profile and low-profile boot are designed for high-density panels, tight wall plates and behind-desk bundles where space is limited.
