5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Blue
5ft Cat6 slim patch cable, 28 AWG unshielded UTP, 0.15 in diameter for high-density airflow
The C2G CG01078 is a 5 ft (1.5 m) Cat6 slim snagless unshielded UTP Ethernet 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 cables, measuring only 0.15 in (3.8 mm). This slim profile significantly improves airflow within crowded racks and allows for a smaller bend radius, making it easy to route through tight cable management panels. The molded snagless PVC boot provides strain relief and protects the RJ-45 connections from accidental snags during installation. This T568B wiring scheme cable supports bandwidth-intensive applications requiring 500 mHz performance. For deployments utilizing PoE or PoE+ applications, installers should limit cable bundles to 40 units to ensure proper heat dissipation for these reduced diameter conductors. This cable is fully compliant with the latest ANSI/TIA-568 standards and is NDAA 889 compliant.

Questions about this part
Will this CG01078 cable work with my existing Cat6 patch panel?
Yes, this cable is compatible with various Cat6 hardware, including the 48-Port Rack Mount Patch Panel (48845CC6) and the 24-Port Rack Mount Patch Panel (24845CC6).
Is this cable suitable for PoE/PoE+ installations?
It is suitable for PoE/PoE+ applications, though it is recommended to limit cable bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation in these 28 AWG slim cables.
What are the maximum channel lengths using slim patch cables?
For a 96 Meter Channel, you can use up to 6 meters of slim network patch cables; for a 93 Meter Channel, you can use up to 10 meters of these cables.
What is the diameter of the CG01078 cable?
The cable has a diameter of 0.15 in (3.8 mm), which is significantly thinner than standard Cat6 patch cables.
Which technical standards does this cable meet?
The CG01078 complies with the latest ANSI/TIA-568 standards and is rated for Cat6 performance with a 500 mHz bandwidth.
