C2G 12ft (3.6m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Blue

Overview

The C2G C2G30135 is a 12 foot Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable 10 Gbps network performance while fitting into tight spaces where airflow and cable management are critical. Its slim 28 AWG conductors allow easy routing through crowded raceways, behind conference tables, or within dense network racks without adding unnecessary bulk. The cable’s unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design and snagless boot make installation and maintenance straightforward, reducing the risk of damage to connectors and simplifying moves or changes in high-density environments.

Key features

• Supports data rates up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 328 feet, ensuring fast and stable network connections.
• Slim 28 AWG conductors reduce cable diameter, improving airflow around network equipment and helping to maintain cooler operating temperatures.
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 latch from catching on adjacent cables or ports, making installation and removal smoother and safer.
• Built-in strain relief on the molded boot helps maintain secure connector seating even after repeated moves or reterminations.
• Compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE), HDBaseT video, and VoIP phone systems, supporting a wide range of network applications.
• Blue jacket color aids in network organization by allowing easy color-coded cable identification for troubleshooting and management.
• Backed by a lifetime warranty from C2G, providing confidence in long-term durability and performance.
