Ultra-slim Cat6 patch cable
This 7-foot purple Cat6 Ethernet cable uses a 0.149-inch diameter 28AWG construction to reduce congestion in high-density networking environments. The snagless narrow-profile boot design simplifies moves, additions and changes in crowded racks or panels. Component-tested performance at 550 MHz ensures reliable data transmission for Gigabit Ethernet applications. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards.
Passive thermals and zero noise
As a passive copper cable, it generates no heat and produces no audible noise during operation. Power draw is negligible because the cable carries only Ethernet signalling currents between connected devices. The slim 28AWG conductors remain cool even under continuous maximum-throughput loads. No active cooling or external power source is ever required.
High-density build integration
The ultra-slim diameter frees valuable space in packed patch panels, switches and cable management trays. Snagless boots prevent latch damage when routing through tight cable bundles or existing installations. CMR riser rating allows vertical runs between floors in commercial buildings. Pure copper construction ensures compatibility with PoE equipment that requires standard-compliant conductors.

Questions about this item
How do I route the 0.149-inch diameter cable through a crowded patch panel without snagging the latch?
The narrow snagless boot slides past adjacent ports; depress the small tab on the RJ45 connector before pulling to release the latch cleanly.
Will the 28AWG stranded conductors fatigue if I reroute the cable frequently?
Stranded 28AWG pure bare copper tolerates repeated bending better than solid core; replace only if the jacket shows kinks or the latch tab breaks.
At what length does the CMR riser rating limit PoE power delivery on this 7-foot run?
At 7 feet the voltage drop is negligible; the CMR rating governs fire safety in vertical shafts, not PoE distance limits.
