5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Purple
5ft Cat6 Slim UTP patch cable in purple, featuring 28 AWG conductors for high-density airflow and cable management
The C2G CG01182 is a 5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Slim Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Network Patch Cable in purple. Engineered specifically for high-density datacenter applications, this cable utilizes 28 AWG stranded copper conductors to achieve a 36% reduction in diameter compared to standard Cat6 patch cables. This slim 0.15 in (3.8 mm) profile provides significantly increased airflow within crowded racks and a much smaller bend radius, making it easy to route through cable management panels. It is designed for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, or video distribution on fast Ethernet networks. To ensure reliable connectivity, the cable features molded, snagless PVC boots that provide strain relief and protect against accidental snags during installation. This cable is T568B wired and compliant with the latest ANSI/TIA-568 standards. When using this cable for PoE or PoE+ applications, installers should limit bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation caused by the reduced diameter.

Questions about this part
Will this CG01182 cable work for PoE or PoE+ applications?
Yes, but for PoE and PoE+ applications, it is recommended to limit bundles to 40 cables to ensure proper heat dissipation for the 28 AWG conductors.
What are the channel length limitations for this slim Cat6 cable?
For a 96 Meter Channel, you can use up to 6 meters of slim network patch cables with 90 meters of horizontal cable. For a 93 Meter Channel, you can use up to 10 meters of slim cables with 83 meters of horizontal cable.
What is the maximum bandwidth and performance rating for the CG01182?
The CG01182 is a Cat6 rated cable that supports a bandwidth of 500 mHz and is compliant with the ANSI/TIA-568 standard.
How does this cable differ from standard Cat6 patch cables?
This is a slim series cable with a 0.15 in (3.8 mm) diameter, providing 36% less surface area than standard cables to improve airflow in dense environments.
Is this cable suitable for high-density rack installations?
Yes, its smaller bend radius and reduced diameter are specifically designed to allow easy routing through cable management panels in high-density setups.
