CABLExpress launches mini CAT6 copper trunk cabling

NEW YORK, USA: CABLExpress announces the addition of a mini Category 6 (CAT6) copper trunk to its cabling product set. With a significant reduction in diameter, the mini copper trunk decreases cabling congestion and allows for increased airflow in the data center.

The mini CAT6 copper trunk bundle has an outer diameter of 0.62 inches, down from its original size of 1.2 inches. The copper trunk breakout legs have a diameter of 0.148 inches, reduced from 0.29 inches.

"While the use of fiber cabling has been steadily increasing to keep up with faster network speeds, copper cabling is still a main component in many data center platforms. A copper trunking solution provides the high performance of CAT6 with the manageability of a slimmer design. This product will be very beneficial for those looking to create a well-designed structured cabling system that maximizes space in the data center," said Peter Belyea, president of CABLExpress.

The CABLExpress mini CAT6 copper trunk provides options for even or staggered breakouts to reduce excess cable, customizable trunk and breakout lengths. The design of theis simple plug-and-play installation directly integrates with the recommended TIA-942 structured cabling standard

The mini CAT6 is also available as a patch cord.
