Black Box C6PC28-BL-07

Overview

The Black Box C6PC28-BL-07 is a slim Category 6 Ethernet cable designed to deliver reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance in tight spaces. Measuring seven feet in length and built with 28 AWG conductors, this cable offers a significantly smaller diameter than standard Cat6 cables, making it easier to manage in dense network racks and enclosures. It supports data transmission frequencies up to 250 MHz, ensuring fast file transfers, smooth video streaming, and clear voice communication over copper networks.

Key features

• 28 AWG conductors reduce cable thickness to nearly half that of conventional Cat6 cables, improving airflow and cable management in crowded racks
• Meets ANSI/TIA-568-C2 standards for Gigabit Ethernet, guaranteeing consistent network performance
• Snagless boots protect the locking tabs from damage during installation and removal, enhancing durability
• 50 micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain a stable, low-loss connection over time
• Bright blue jacket allows for quick identification among multiple cables in complex setups
• Seven-foot length is well suited for patch panels, switch-to-server connections, and other short-distance networking needs

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
