Cable Ethernet 28AWG CAT6/CAT6A - Slim-Net™

28-AWG-CAT6CAT6A-Etherne_H

Optimize space and cable handling in high-density data centers and telecom rooms.


With a diameter of only .161"(4.1 mm), 28-AWG cable is almost half the size of a 24-AWG cable. When you calculate the physical cable area, you'll actually save more than 50% space when compared to traditional cables. Reduce or eliminate horizontal cable managers freeing up more rack space. You’ll also free up 50% more space in vertical pathways.

Slim-Net Network Patch Cables Benefits

  • Save Space
    Gain almost 50% more space in front of equipment and in cable pathways.
  • Improve Airflow
    Thinner cables take up a lot less space in front of patch panels and network equipment resulting in improved air flow and cooling. 
  • Easier Handling 
    More space means more room for fingers when doing installs and MACs. And it’s easier to see port assignments
  • Reduce Cable Management
    With a bend radius that’s 70% tighter, you can more easily route cables without horizontal cable managers. 
  • Run Power over Ethernet (PoE)
    Slim-Net cable can support all PoE levels: IEEE 802.3af PoE, 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3bt (PoE++). This makes Slim-Net patch cable a more economical choice for powering remote security cameras, manufacturing sensors, wireless access points, and more for smaller bundles up to 12 cables.
