Monoprice 114822 SlimRun Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable 14ft

The Monoprice SlimRun Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable addresses one of the most common pain points in network infrastructure: cable congestion. With an ultra-slim diameter of just 0.149 inches and 28AWG stranded pure bare copper construction, this 14-foot cable takes up a fraction of the space of standard Cat6 patch cables. In high-density environments like server racks, patch panels, and network closets, this space savings translates directly into better airflow, easier cable tracing, and cleaner overall cable management. The snagless narrow-profile RJ45 boot further helps by preventing clips from snagging on adjacent cables during installation or reconfiguration.

Despite its slim build, the SlimRun does not compromise on performance. It supports 550MHz bandwidth and is component-tested — a higher standard than channel-tested cables — ensuring optimized signal integrity across the full cable run. The UTP construction with CMR riser rating makes it suitable for both horizontal desktop runs and vertical riser installations between floors, meeting fire safety requirements for commercial environments. At 14 feet in red, it provides a practical length for rack-to-switch or desk-to-wall connections while remaining easy to identify in multi-cable setups.
