Ultra-Slim 0.149-Inch Cat6 Patch Cable

This 2-foot red Cat6 cable uses 28 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and a narrow snagless boot to reduce congestion in high-density racks and panels. It is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and meets CMR riser and UL 444 fire-safety standards for in-wall runs.

Suited For Tight Racks And Patch Panels

Installers working in crowded cabinets, dense switch blocks or shallow cable trays benefit from the reduced diameter that eases routing and simplifies moves, additions and changes. Builders who need a heavier gauge for PoE power budgets or extended distances should look at standard-thickness Cat6 cables instead.

28 AWG Stranded Conductor Gauge

The 28 AWG stranded construction delivers the ultra-slim 0.149-inch profile that defines the SlimRun series and determines whether the cable fits your density requirements. Thicker gauges will not achieve the same space saving in congested pathways.

Questions about this item

Does the 28 AWG gauge limit PoE power delivery on this cable?

The 28 AWG conductors carry less current than thicker gauges, so high-power PoE+ or PoE++ loads may exceed the cable's safe capacity.

Will the 0.149-inch diameter cable run hotter than standard Cat6 in a packed rack?

The slim profile reduces airflow blockage, but the smaller 28 AWG conductors have higher resistance, which can increase temperature slightly under continuous maximum load.

What RJ45 port spacing is needed for the snagless narrow boot to fit?

The narrow boot design fits standard RJ45 ports spaced at typical patch-panel density; no special port layout is required.
