Black Box 20ft Slim-Net CAT6 Ethernet Patch Cable (Red)

The Black Box C6PC28-RD-20 is a 20-foot Category 6 patch cable that delivers dependable Gigabit connectivity while taking up far less room inside your rack or patch panel. Its 28 AWG conductors allow a diameter that is almost half of a typical CAT6 cable, so you can route many more links through the same cable managers and still leave space for ventilation.

The low-profile jacket helps air move freely around switches and servers, which can ease thermal buildup in dense installations. Network technicians will also appreciate the snagless boot that shields the latch during pulls, lowering the chance of broken tabs when cables are added or removed during fast turnarounds.

Inside each RJ-45 plug, 50-micron gold-plated contacts maintain solid signal integrity for high-speed data transfers and long-term reliability. The cable meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 performance requirements, so it can handle everything from everyday office traffic to demanding data center workloads without bottlenecks.

Choose this vibrant red cable when you need quick visual identification, whether you are color-coding connections in a core switch, extending a run to a desktop, or wiring a home lab that requires clean, organized bundles.
