Overview
- The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin Patch Cable is engineered for modern network environments where space efficiency and reliability matter. At just 1 metre in length with a slim profile, it fits seamlessly into crowded patch panels without compromising performance or durability.
Manufactured to ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 standards and Fluke-tested for verification, this cable delivers consistent Gigabit Ethernet performance suitable for both current and future network demands. The staggered-pin RJ45 connectors with gold plating ensure stable connections and resist oxidation in demanding environments.
Ideal for data centres, server rooms, and professional installations, the ultra-thin design eliminates cable management bottlenecks while maintaining the rigorous performance standards Australian businesses expect. Low-profile moulded boots and robust strain relief provide long-term reliability in high-traffic installations.

FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6 ultra-thin and standard CAT6 cables?
Ultra-thin CAT6 cables have a smaller outer diameter whilst maintaining full CAT6 performance. This makes them ideal for high-density patch panel environments where space is limited. Both types meet the same ISO/IEC 11801 standards and support the same speeds.
Will this 1m cable support 10-Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes. The 8ware CAT6 cable is rated for 10-Gigabit Ethernet speeds at shorter distances. However, CAT6 performance degrades over longer runs; for consistent 10Gbps over greater distances, CAT6A or CAT7 is recommended.
What does Fluke-tested mean?
Fluke-tested means the cable has been verified using Fluke Networks testing equipment, the industry standard for certifying network cable quality and performance. This ensures the cable meets published specifications.
Is this cable suitable for Australian data centre installations?
Yes. The cable complies with ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 and TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards, which are recognised globally and suitable for Australian professional network installations.
What do the gold-plated connectors do?
Gold plating on RJ45 connectors provides superior corrosion resistance and maintains reliable electrical contact over time. This is particularly important in high-density environments where cables are frequently inserted and removed.
Can I use this cable for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes. CAT6 cables can transmit both data and power for PoE-compliant devices. The 26AWG conductors support standard PoE applications within specification.
What is the warranty coverage?
The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin Cable includes a 3-year manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
