Amphenol's NEW 28-AWG Slim Category-6 (Thin CAT6) Network Patch Cables (Color: White) are designed with a dramatic reduction of cable diameter (over 33%), enabling IT professionals improved cable routing flexibility and enhanced airflow in today's high-density server rack environments. Unlike many inferior competing Slim CAT-6 Patch Cords on the market, ours are fully qualified to meet and exceed the newly ratified TIA/EIA standards for 28-AWG CAT6 data cabling, which is an absolute pre-requisite for PoE (Power over Ethernet) compatibility over reduced-diameter (thin-line) CAT6 products.In order for standard CAT6 Cable (24-AWG UTP) to support the high-bandwidth (250-MHz) throughput of 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T), cross-talk between pairs had to be mitigated by one of two methods – either shielding the individual twisted pairs, or using a physical pair separator (spline) within the cable. Failure to utilize one of these critical design parameters will yield a cable that is effectively no better than the inferior 100-MHz rated Category-5e standard.
Our own R&D efforts revealed that nearly 90% of the “Slim CAT6” products being sold lack these critical design parameters altogether, misleading consumers into buying the inferior equivalent of a “Slim CAT5e” cable instead. All Amphenol-brand 28-AWG Slim CAT6 Cables use the requisite pair separator; providing true CAT6 performance that is verified via TIA/EIA Certified CAT6 qualification equipment prior to shipment from the factory.
