Black Box Slim-Net Cat.6 UTP Patch Network Cable – Low-Profile 28-AWG Ethernet Cable for High-Density Applications

The Black Box Slim-Net Cat.6 UTP Patch Network Cable (Part Number: C6PC28-GN-02) is engineered for high-density networking environments where space efficiency and reliable performance are critical. With a diameter of only 0.161 inches, these 28-AWG cables significantly reduce clutter and enable more cables to be managed within the same rack space, effectively saving over 50 percent compared to traditional 24-AWG cables. This slim design facilitates easier installation and MAC procedures by providing more room for handling, and improves airflow within equipment racks, contributing to better heat dissipation and overall system reliability.

Constructed with a flexible, low-profile form factor, these cables are ideal for crowded telecom rooms, data centers, and any high-bandwidth Ethernet deployment requiring maximum space utilization. The cables' small footprint allows for easier routing without extensive cable management tools and makes them suitable for high-density 1U or 2U patch panels, freeing up valuable rack space and reducing the need for additional cable management accessories. The enhanced flexibility and slim profile also enable more efficient cable bundling and installation, which simplifies maintenance and upgrades.

Designed to meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standards, the Black Box Slim-Net cables guarantee the transmission of Gigabit Ethernet signals with high integrity. They feature 50-micron gold-plated contacts for superior conductivity and durability, with connectors rated for up to 750 insertion cycles. Snagless boots provide strain relief and protect connectors during installation, preventing damage caused by cable snags. These cables are tested to 250 MHz, ensuring reliable performance for demanding network environments. Suitable for environmentally conscious installations, they are made with PVC jackets and comply with RoHS standards, with a lifetime warranty backing their durability and performance. Available in multiple lengths and colors, the Slim-Net line offers versatile options to customize your network setup while maintaining optimal performance and space efficiency.
