5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Gray
5ft Cat6 slim UTP patch cable with 28 AWG conductors and snagless boots for high-density datacenter airflow
The C2G CG01091 is a 5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable in gray, engineered specifically for high-density datacenter applications. 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) diameter decreases the cable surface area, which facilitates improved airflow within crowded racks and enclosures. The slim profile also allows for a tighter bend radius, making it easy to route through narrow cable management panels. Built to ANSI/TIA-568 standards, this cable supports bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video distribution with a 500 mHz bandwidth. To protect connections, the molded snagless boots provide strain relief and prevent accidental snags during installation. This product is suitable for environments requiring high-density routing, though it is important to limit bundles to 40 cables for POE/POE+ applications to manage heat dissipation.

Questions about this part
Will this C2G CG01091 cable fit my high-density rack configuration?
Yes, the 28 AWG slim design reduces diameter by 36%, allowing for better airflow and easier routing through cable management panels compared to standard Cat6.
What is the maximum recommended channel length for this slim Cat6 cable?
For a 96-meter channel, you can use up to 6 meters of these slim network patch cables. For a 93-meter channel, you can use up to 10 meters.
Is this Cat6 cable suitable for PoE or PoE+ applications?
Yes, but to manage heat dissipation caused by the reduced diameter, it is recommended to limit cable bundles to 40 cables for PoE/POE+ applications.
What specific networking standards does the CG01091 meet?
This cable is designed to comply with the latest ANSI/TIA-568 standards for high-performance data, voice, and video distribution.
What accessories are compatible with this Cat6 series?
This series is compatible with various components including the 48-Port Rack Mount Patch Panel (48845CC6) and the 24-Port Rack Mount Patch Panel (24845CC6).
