Slim Cat6 cable for dense installs

This StarTech N6PAT10BKS is a 10 ft Cat6 UTP patch cord built with 28 AWG conductors that make it 36% thinner than a standard Cat6 cable. The reduced diameter helps installers route links through crowded network closets and cable-management panels. It meets the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standard for patch-cord performance and uses 100% copper conductors with 50-micron gold RJ-45 contacts.

Snagless clips and airflow gains

The moulded RJ-45 plugs include integrated snagless clips that protect the locking tab during pulls and re-seats. Because the jacket is 36% thinner, bundles occupy less space in vertical managers and patch panels, which improves airflow and helps optimise heat dissipation inside rack enclosures. The slim profile also eases tracing and labelling in high-density rows.

Suits high-density rack builds; not for rugged runs

This cable suits network engineers and integrators deploying Gigabit Ethernet in packed data-centre racks where cable density and airflow are constraints. Installers who need shielded construction, outdoor-rated jackets or thicker conductors for industrial pull strength should look at other cable types.

Questions about this item

Will the RJ-45 connectors need replacement after repeated insertions?

The connectors use 50-micron gold plating and snagless clips to resist wear from frequent plugging and unplugging.

What limits throughput when the cable runs at full 10 ft length?

The 28 AWG UTP construction and Cat6 rating set the maximum signal bandwidth for the 10 ft run.

Does the thinner jacket change heat output in a packed cabinet?

The 36% slimmer profile improves airflow around the cable, helping equipment stay cooler during continuous operation.
