Black Box 2ft Slim-Net CAT6 250MHz Ethernet Patch Cable (Red)

The Black Box C6PC28-RD-02 is a two-foot CAT6 patch cable that helps you keep crowded racks and patch panels under control. It uses 28-AWG conductors and a slim outer jacket so the cable takes up roughly half the space of a typical CAT6 lead, opening valuable room for airflow and easier hand access.

Despite its slim profile, the cable meets the CAT6 standard and carries signals up to 250 MHz, so you can run Gigabit Ethernet without worrying about bottlenecks. Each connector includes a snagless boot that shields the release tab, reducing the chance of breakage when you pull cables in and out of dense bundles. Gold-plated contacts promote solid, corrosion-resistant connectivity over the long term.

Use this short, two-foot length whenever you jump between switch ports in a top-of-rack layout, link devices on the same shelf, or tidy up a home lab where excess slack would only add clutter. Installers who spend their days routing hundreds of cables in data centers will appreciate the lighter weight and easier bend radius, while small business owners can benefit from a clean, professional look without resorting to custom cabling.
