Black Box Slim-Net Cat6a UTP Patch Network Cable – 28-AWG Low-Profile Ethernet Cable for High-Density Data Centers

Black Box Slim-Net Cat.6a UTP Patch Network Cable

The Black Box Slim-Net Cat6a UTP Patch Network Cable (Part Number: C6APC28-BK-10) is engineered for high-performance networking in space-constrained environments such as data centers, telecom rooms, and office setups. Its low-profile 28-AWG design offers a nearly half diameter of standard cables, enabling easier routing, improved airflow, and heat dissipation in high-density configurations. This compact form factor allows you to maximize rack space, fitting more cables into 1U or 2U patch panels while reducing the need for additional cable management accessories. The result is a cleaner setup with enhanced airflow, which can help maintain optimal operating temperatures and overall network reliability.

Constructed with robust materials, the Slim-Net cable meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standards for 10G Ethernet transmission, ensuring high-speed data integrity. The cable features 50-micron gold-plated contacts for superior conductivity and durability, supporting reliable connections over time. Its snagless boots provide strain relief and protect connectors during installation, extending the lifespan of the cable. Tested to 500-MHz CAT6A standards, this cable guarantees high-frequency performance suitable for demanding network environments. The PVC jacket offers environmental friendliness and durability suitable for office and data center applications.

Available in black, this patch cable's flexible yet sturdy design makes it easy to handle during installations and maintenance. The cable's small footprint reduces clutter, facilitating better airflow and heat management within crowded racks. As a part of Black Box's trusted Slim-Net line, this cable provides an optimal combination of space-saving design, high performance, and long-term reliability, backed by a lifetime limited warranty. Whether deploying new network infrastructure or upgrading existing setups, the Black Box Slim-Net Cat6a cable offers an efficient solution for high-density, high-speed Ethernet connections.
