SLIM® slim patch cables provide a solution to a wide range of cabling challenges. Although visually similar to ribbon cables, SLIM patch cables meet Category 6 specifications and are therefore suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T and 10.000BASE-T applications, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Three SLIM patch cables take up the same diameter as a single standard CAT6A patch cable. Despite its extremely thin design, the cable features individually twisted wire pairs. It also has a wide, flexible latch protector and a handy length marking at both ends, and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE according to IEEE802.3af and IEEE802.3at).

Typical areas of application for SLIM patch cables:

• Overcrowded server or network cabinets or cable ducts

• Telephone panels or switches with high port densities: with very short cables you can easily patch from switch to switch or switch to panel without a cable management panel

• Connecting VoIP phones, as the cables are extremely flexible and therefore easy to route on a desk

• Applications in industry and manufacturing, where Ethernet connections are needed but little space is available

• As a patch cable in the laptop bag of technicians and field service staff

• In the home environment, to run a patch cable under the carpet or the skirting board
