C2G 20ft (6.1m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Blue

Overview

The C2G C2G30137 is a 20 ft Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver full 10 Gbps network performance while maintaining a slim and flexible profile. Its unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction with 28 AWG conductors allows easy routing through tight spaces and dense patch panels without compromising signal quality. This cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering devices like access points, cameras, and VoIP phones over a single line.

Key features

• Flexible 28 AWG conductors that simplify installation in confined or crowded environments
• Molded snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch from accidental damage during moves or reconfigurations
• Supports data transmission speeds up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 328 ft, ensuring high-speed connectivity
• Compact 4.8 mm diameter cable improves airflow in high-density racks and reduces clutter
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors resist corrosion and maintain a stable, reliable connection
• Compatible with PoE devices, reducing the need for separate power cables and simplifying network setups
• Blue jacket color helps with easy identification and color-coded cable management
• Meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards for guaranteed performance and reliability
