The LIGHT patch cables from the SLIM® brand are a solution for various cabling issues. Although visually similar to a standard copper patch cable, the LIGHT patch cables achieve the specifications of Category 6, making them suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T applications, including Gigabit Ethernet. Remarkably, three LIGHT patch cables have the diameter of a single standard CAT6 patch cable. Despite their extremely thin design, the cable maintains the twisting of the individual pairs. Additionally, it features a wide, flexible strain relief and a practical length print on both ends, supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE according to IEEE802.3af).

Application: Typical applications for LIGHT patch cables include:

• Overcrowded server or network cabinets or cable ducts
• Telephone panels or switches with high port densities: with very short cables, one can easily patch from switch to switch or switch to panel without a cable management panel
• Connection of VoIP phones, as the cables are extremely flexible and thus easy to lay on a desk
• Applications in industry or manufacturing where Ethernet connections are needed but space is limited
• As a patch cable in the laptop bag for technicians and field service representatives
• In a home environment, to run a patch cable under the carpet or along the chair rail.
