5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Yellow

5ft Cat6 slim patch cable in yellow, featuring 28 AWG conductors and a reduced 0.15 in diameter for high-density environments

The C2G CG01172 is a 5ft (1.5m) Cat6 Slim Unshielded UTP network patch cable finished in yellow. 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 significantly increases airflow within crowded enclosures and allows for a much smaller bend radius, making it easier to route through compact cable management panels. This cable is designed to support bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video distribution applications on fast Ethernet networks. To ensure reliable performance, the design minimizes Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels. The assembly features snagless, booted RJ-45 male connectors with PVC hoods to prevent snags and provide strain relief during installation. For PoE/PoE+ applications, users should limit bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation effectively due to the reduced conductor diameter.
