Intellinet 742177 Cat6 Slim Network Patch Cable 10ft

Product Description

The INTELLINET 742177 is a Cat6 U/UTP slim network patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential environments. Built to Cat6 specifications, it supports Gigabit Ethernet and reduces congestion in high-density cable runs thanks to its slim-profile construction. The reduced diameter makes routing through tight conduit, patch panels, and cable managers significantly easier than standard-gauge patch cables. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable for switch-to-server connections, patch panel terminations, and workstation drops where cable management space is limited.

This patch cable is suited for data center environments, server rooms, network closets, and office workstation installations. Its slim form factor is particularly useful in high-density rack deployments where airflow and cable routing are critical concerns. The blue jacket aids in color-coded cable identification by port, zone, or network segment, which simplifies troubleshooting and documentation during moves, adds, and changes.

Key Features

• Cat6 U/UTP construction supports Gigabit Ethernet performance
• Slim-profile design reduces cable bulk in high-density installations
• 10-foot length suits rack-to-rack and patch panel to switch runs
• Blue jacket supports color-coded cable management practices
• Pre-terminated connectors allow plug-and-play installation with no field crimping

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use patch cable compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e infrastructure including RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, switches, and network interface cards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians or IT network professionals. Power down or disconnect active ports when patching live switching equipment to avoid unintended network disruptions. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling practices during installation.
