C2G 1ft (0.3m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Black

Overview

The C2G C2G30139 is a one-foot Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver high-speed network connections in tight spaces without adding bulk. Its slim 28 AWG conductors allow for efficient cable management and improved airflow in dense racks, while supporting data rates up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 328 feet. This cable is ideal for linking devices that are close together, such as top-of-rack switches to patch panels or PoE wireless access points in cabinets, helping maintain a clean and organized network environment.

Key features

• Slim 28 AWG conductors reduce cable thickness, enabling more cables in crowded patch panels and better cooling.
• Cat6a standard supports 10 Gbps speeds, providing double the bandwidth of Cat6 and a significant upgrade over Cat5e.
• Snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch from damage during installation and moves, ensuring reliable connections.
• Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain stable signal transmission over time.
• Durable PVC jacket withstands frequent handling and environmental wear in busy IT setups.
• Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction fits standard network hardware and supports PoE devices, VoIP phones, and IP cameras.
• Compact one-foot length minimizes excess cable clutter in close-proximity device connections.
• Backed by a lifetime warranty, offering long-term reliability and peace of mind.
