Flat 0.5 ft Cat6 Cable

This 0.5 foot white Cat6 patch cable uses a flat jacket that resists tangling and eases routing in tight spaces. It is built with 30AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and tested to 550 MHz bandwidth. The snagless RJ45 plugs have a thin flexible boot for easy release in dense panels. It suits short runs between a modem, router, switch or console where clearance is limited.

Best for Cramped Racks and Short Hops

Installers who need a very short link in a crowded cabinet or behind furniture will benefit from the slim flat profile. Builders who require longer reach, shielded construction or solid-core cable for in-wall runs should look elsewhere. The 30AWG stranded conductors are optimised for flexibility, not for extended horizontal runs.

550 MHz Tested Bandwidth

The cable is verified to 550 MHz, supporting Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over its 0.5 foot length. Pure bare copper meets UL 444 and TIA 568C requirements for communications wiring. This bandwidth figure is the single spec that confirms the cable will handle the intended data rate.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the flat 30AWG jacket need in a raceway or under carpet?

The flat profile is thinner than round Cat6, so it fits tight raceways and slides under carpet without bunching; allow roughly the cable thickness plus a few millimetres for the snagless boot.

Which way do I press the thinner Flexboot to release the RJ45 clip without snapping it?

Press the narrow side of the boot straight down toward the cable body — its reduced height gives finger room — then pull the connector; rocking side-to-side stresses the 30AWG strands.

When should I replace this 0.5 ft patch cord in a high-density rack?

Replace it if the flat jacket shows kinks, the boot cracks, or the RJ45 clip loses its spring; the 30AWG pure bare copper conductors remain compliant with UL 444 and TIA-568C unless physically damaged.
