For setups in high-density data centres, choose this slim Ethernet cable from StarTech.com. Its thinner diameter allows for improved airflow and heat dissipation in tight spaces. It's also flexible, so makes cable runs easier in crowded network racks. The cable is halogen-free, which means it won't emit toxic fumes in the event of a fire. You can use it safely in areas where ventilation is poor as well as in trains and aircraft.

Easier to pull through narrow spacesSnag-free connectors reduce the chance of you damaging the cable assembly when pulling it through narrow spaces.
Minimal risk of signal lossThe 50-micron gold connectorsvirtually eliminate the risk of signal loss due to oxidation, ensuring optimal conductivity, even in humid environments.
Reduced crosstalkTwisted pairs of wires with different twist rates help to reduce the risk of crosstalk and support interference-free data transfer.

• Colour-coded grey for easy identification in a high-density network
• Highly conductive copper wires for peak performance in demanding applications
• Supplied with RJ45 connectors at either end, so ready to install

The StarTech.com slim 1.5m CAT6 patch cable meets all CAT6 patch cable specifications to deliver a reliable Gigabit network connection in high-density data centre applications. The design of this slim CAT6 patch cord is 36% thinner than standard networking cables, which allows better airflow and heat dissipation in tight spaces. The cable is also more flexible than standard Ethernet cables, so cable runs are easier in crowded network racks. This cable features snag less connectors that protect the RJ45 clips during installation, making them less likely to snag or break as you pull them through narrow spaces.
