Black Box 4ft Slim-Net CAT6 250MHz 28AWG Ethernet Cable (Red)

The Black Box C6PC28-RD-04 is a Slim-Net CAT6 Ethernet cable that measures four feet in length and supports 250 MHz performance for Gigabit connections. Built with 28 AWG stranded conductors, it occupies roughly half the space of a standard patch cord, letting you reclaim room in high-density racks and patch panels.

Installers working in data centers, server rooms, and wiring closets will appreciate how the thin geometry improves airflow and helps equipment run cooler. The flexible PVC jacket bends easily, so routing through cable managers and around tight corners feels straightforward.

Although smaller, the cable still meets CAT6 specifications. Unshielded twisted pairs limit crosstalk in typical LAN environments, while 50 micron gold-plated contacts maintain a clean, low-resistance connection through thousands of mating cycles.

A snagless boot guards the plug latch when you pull the cable through bundles or between closely spaced ports, helping to prevent accidental damage. The red jacket offers quick visual identification for segmented networks, security zones, or specific equipment groups.

Choose the Black Box C6PC28-RD-04 when you need dependable Gigabit performance and better cable management in environments such as enterprise switching rooms, cloud hosting facilities, broadcast studios, or even a compact home lab.
