Item Description
The Cat6 slim patch cable is the perfect solution for high density datacenter applications. Its compact 28AWG design simplifies installation and management. Smaller patch lead size helps alleviate congestion as well as improving airflow with in the racks. Snagless boot prevents unwanted cable snags during installation and provides extra strain relief, which provides easy access in high-density applications. All patch cords shall be compatible with both T568B wire scheme. The smaller diameter makes for a slimmer, more flexible cable that is perfect for cross connects, workstations or racks with higher-density and limited space. Stranded copper patch cable can be used with a longer flex-life. The cable supports PoE to save you the expense and effort of powering PoE devices individually. You can also install PoE devices in locations distant from power outlets, such as high on walls, ceilings or poles.
