The Cat6 slim patch cable is the perfect solution for high density datacenter applications. 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. For fast Ethernet and Gigabit computer networks, Category 6 copper cable supports speeds up to 10 Gbps over 37-55 meters of cable and 100 meters for slower (the 10/100/1000BASE-T standards) network.
