C2G 6ft (1.8m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Gray

Overview

The C2G C2G30116 is a 6-foot Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver 10-gigabit network performance while maintaining a slim and flexible profile. It uses 28 AWG unshielded twisted pairs to create a cable that easily fits into crowded racks, desks, and conference tables without restricting airflow. This cable is ideal for high-density environments where space is limited and reliable, high-speed connections are essential.

With support for speeds up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 328 feet, it handles bandwidth-intensive applications such as Power over Ethernet (PoE) cameras, VoIP phones, and rapid file transfers between servers. The gray jacket allows for easy color-coding in complex network setups, and the snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch to prevent damage during installation.

Key features

• Cat6a rating ensures 10 Gbps data transfer speeds for demanding network tasks
• 28 AWG conductors create a slim cable that is easier to route through tight spaces and cable bundles
