10ft (3m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Gray
10ft Cat6 slim unshielded UTP patch cable, 28 AWG, 0.15 in diameter, gray finish
The C2G CG01096 is a 10ft (3.1 m) Cat6 Slim Snagless Unshielded UTP Ethernet Network Patch Cable designed for high-density datacenter environments. By utilizing 28 AWG stranded copper conductors, this cable achieves a 36% reduction in diameter compared to standard Cat6 patch cables, measuring just 0.15 in (3.8 mm). This slim profile allows for a smaller bend radius, making it easier to route through crowded cable management panels and increasing airflow within server racks. The snagless, molded PVC boots provide extra strain relief and protect against accidental snags during installation. This cable is built for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, or video distribution in fast Ethernet networks and complies with the ANSI/TIA-568 standard. For POE/POE+ applications, it is recommended to limit bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation caused by the reduced diameter. This gray cable uses a T568B wiring scheme and is rated for a 500 mHz bandwidth.
