I get all my patch cables from PB tech, sometimes JA Russells. They have slim ones available from variuos brands. I think most of mine are dynamix brand but I'm sure theyre just an importer and the others look pretty similar.

 

Been advised not to use them for POE devices which makes sense, and also not to use for HDMI extenders which doesnt, and I tried them and they work fine for that.

I think the shortest are 300mm from Dynamix. Never seen shorter.

The last time I bought cables, Doolz had the cheapest prices and a pretty good range:

Cheers for everyone's help, ended up going with the 220mm Ubiquiti cables.

 

Next purchase will be a Ubiquiti 24 POE switch.
