3ft (0.9m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Yellow
3ft (0.9m) Cat6 Slim UTP patch cable, 28 AWG, yellow, designed for high-density datacenter airflow and cable management
The C2G CG01171 is a 3ft (0.9m) Cat6 Slim Unshielded (UTP) Network Patch Cable designed specifically 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. This smaller 0.15 in (3.8 mm) profile provides significantly increased airflow in crowded racks and allows for a tighter bend radius, making it easier to route through dense cable management panels. This yellow cable is optimized for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video distribution applications requiring 500 mHz bandwidth. Each cable features molded, snagless PVC boots for added strain relief and to prevent snags during installation. This slim series is compliant with the latest ANSI/TIA-568 standards and is suitable for high-performance Ethernet networks. For PoE/PoE+ applications, users should limit bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation effectively.
