15ft (4.57m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Yellow
15ft Cat6 Slim UTP patch cable with 28 AWG conductors for high-density airflow and small bend radius applications
The C2G02245 is a 15ft (4.57m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable in yellow, specifically engineered for high-density datacenter environments. Utilizing 28 AWG stranded copper conductors, this cable offers a 36% reduction in diameter compared to standard Cat6 patch cables. This slim profile reduces the overall cable surface area, which facilitates improved airflow within crowded racks. The reduced diameter also enables a much tighter bend radius of 0.6 in (15.2 mm), making it easier to route through tight cable management panels. This cable is designed for high-bandwidth applications including voice, data, and video distribution. It features a molded, snagless PVC boot to provide extra strain relief and prevent snags during installation. For POE/POE+ applications, installers should limit cable bundles to 40 units to manage the heat dissipation associated with these reduced diameter conductors.

Questions about this part
Will this C2G02245 cable work in high-density server racks?
Yes, the 28 AWG slim design is optimized for high-density environments by increasing airflow and allowing for a 0.6 in (15.2 mm) bend radius.
Can I use this slim Cat6 cable for PoE applications?
Yes, but for POE/POE+ applications, it is recommended to limit cable bundles to 40 cables to ensure proper heat dissipation.
What is the maximum channel length for this Cat6 slim patch cable?
For a 96-meter channel, use up to 6 meters of slim patch cables. For a 93-meter channel, you can use up to 10 meters of slim patch cables.
What tools are required to install the C2G02245?
This is a factory-terminated patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors, so no specialized installation tools are required for connectivity.
What is the difference between this and standard Cat6 cables?
This slim version uses 28 AWG conductors to achieve a 36% smaller diameter than standard Cat6, allowing for higher density and better airflow.
