Cat6 cables are designed for operating frequencies of up to 250 MHz and are used for signal transmission with high data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbps. Due to the high signal frequencies, special care is required during installation and assembly, particularly at the connection points of the wires. The individual wire pairs in Cat6 are twisted at different tightness levels, which further reduces susceptibility to interference compared to Cat5e. Application areas for Cat6 cables include voice and data transmission as well as multimedia and ATM networks. Even more powerful are cables according to Cat6e (500 MHz) and Cat6a (625 MHz).

A significant advantage of Slimpatch cables is their use in wiring racks and 48-port switches. Thanks to their extremely thin design and high flexibility, they help avoid cable clutter and maintain organization. A Wirewin Cat6 Slimpatch cable features a flexible and wide connector protection as well as a length print on both ends. This way, you can finally achieve some order in your distribution cabinets. They are the optimal solution for connecting IP phones to your network. Due to their short connector and flexibility, these cables are ideally suited for this application. Despite their extremely thin construction, Power over Ethernet supply for IP phones is also possible with these cables.
