Product Overview
The Black Box C6APC28-BL-10 is a 10-foot blue CAT6A slim patch cable using 28AWG conductors rated at 500MHz for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) applications. The slim form factor reduces cable bundle diameter versus standard CAT6A, improving airflow and cable management in high-density switch and patch panel environments in data centers, server rooms, and commercial AV racks.
Product Description
This slim CAT6A patch cable delivers 500MHz performance and supports 10GBASE-T at distances up to 100 meters over CAT6A infrastructure. The 28AWG slim construction reduces the outer jacket diameter significantly compared to standard 23AWG CAT6A cables, enabling tighter routing in cable managers and better airflow around rack equipment. Snagless boot construction protects the RJ-45 latch during installation in dense patch fields. The CM-rated UTP jacket suits standard in-building use. Blue color supports color-coded patch administration and cable identification. The 10-foot length is practical for patch panel-to-switch connections in standard and deep equipment racks.
