Slim Cat6 patch cable for tight spaces

This StarTech Cat6 UTP cable measures 1 ft and uses 28 AWG conductors that are 36% thinner than standard Cat6 patch cords. The slim profile makes it easier to route through crowded network closets and cable-management panels. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends support Gigabit Ethernet links.

Check port spacing and cable routing needs

Verify that the 1 ft length reaches between your devices without strain and that the snagless boot design clears adjacent ports in high-density panels. The UTP construction means there is no shielding, so confirm that your environment does not require shielded cable for interference protection.

Suits installers working in dense racks

Ideal for technicians who need flexible, space-saving patch cords in data centres or server rooms where airflow and cable density matter. Not suited for runs longer than 1 ft, for outdoor or PoE-heavy deployments needing shielded cable, or for buyers who require bulk cable reels rather than pre-terminated patch cords.

Questions about this item

Does the box include only the 1 ft slim cable or are any adapters or mounts supplied?

The package contains the single 1 ft Cat6 UTP patch cord with RJ45 male connectors on both ends; no adapters, brackets or additional hardware are included.

When should I choose this 1 ft 28 AWG version instead of a standard Cat6 cable?

Choose this 36% thinner 28 AWG cable when routing through high-density network closets or cable-management panels where improved airflow and easier bends are needed.

What does the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 rating mean for actual Gigabit Ethernet throughput?

The rating confirms the cable meets Cat6 patch-cord performance requirements, supporting full Gigabit Ethernet speeds over the 1 ft length with 100% copper conductors and 50-micron gold contacts.
