Monoprice FLEXboot Flat Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cables are ideal for high-density environments where space is a premium. They feature 30AWG pure bare copper conductors within a thin, flat jacket, which reduces congestion, resists tangling, and is easily routed through cable management. The thinner FLEXboot snagless cable boot protects the plug retaining clip and is easier to depress, allowing for faster and easier connection changes. These high-performance stranded UTP cables deliver 550MHz bandwidth. Monoprice Ethernet cables are made of 100% pure bare copper wire, compliant with UL Code 444 and National Electrical Code TIA‑568‑C.2 fire and safety standards.
