Ultra-slim Cat 6 patch cable

This 5 ft Category 6 cable uses 28 AWG stranded conductors to deliver a thinner profile than standard patch leads. It is built for home and office networks that need reliable gigabit or 10-gigabit links in tight cable runs. The blue jacket makes it easy to identify in crowded racks or under desks.

Snagless narrow boot and gold contacts

A narrow snagless boot prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during insertion or removal, which is useful in high-density patch panels or switch stacks. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion and maintain low-contact resistance over repeated mating cycles. Pure bare copper conductors avoid the signal loss associated with copper-clad aluminium wiring.

Pure copper construction for stable throughput

The cable is rated to 550 MHz and uses unshielded twisted-pair geometry with solid bare copper wires, supporting 10-gigabit Ethernet while remaining backward compatible with existing fast and gigabit equipment. No additional software or accessories are bundled; the product is the cable itself, ready to terminate network devices on arrival.

Questions about this item

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for real-world throughput?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet speeds while remaining backward compatible with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet networks.

Will the 28 AWG ultra-slim profile fit high-density patch panels?

Yes, the narrow boot and snagless design are built for tight spaces such as data-centre racks and telecommunications rooms.

How do I seat the gold-plated RJ45 connectors without damaging the latch?

Push the connector straight in until the tab clicks; the snagless boot protects the latch, but forcing it at an angle can still bend the tab.
