FAQs

What are the key features of the C2G 00665 Cat6a network cable?
The C2G 00665 is a 12ft Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) network patch cable featuring gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, snagless boots for high-density applications, and supports 10 Gigabit data transmission up to 100 meters. It's constructed with copper conductors, HDPE insulation, and PVC jacket, meeting ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a standards. The cable comes in gray color and includes a lifetime warranty.
What speeds and performance can I expect from this Cat6a cable?
This Cat6a patch cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) data transmission over distances up to 100 meters, offering superior performance compared to standard Cat6 cables. It's fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a channel requirements and features improved alien crosstalk performance, making it ideal for high-speed network connections in demanding environments.
What types of devices is this cable compatible with?
The C2G 00665 Cat6a cable is compatible with a wide range of network devices including network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels. It features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends, making it suitable for any standard network equipment that uses RJ-45 ports, particularly those supporting 10GBase-T connectivity.
What is the significance of the snagless boot design?
The snagless boot design is specifically engineered for high-density switch applications, preventing the connector tab from catching or snagging when being pulled through cable management systems or tight spaces. This feature helps protect the connector's locking tab from damage and makes cable installation and removal easier, especially in crowded network installations.
What materials are used in the construction of this cable?
The C2G 00665 cable features high-quality materials including copper conductors for optimal signal transmission, High-density Polyethylene (HDPE) insulation for protection, and a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacket for durability. The connectors feature gold plating for superior connectivity and corrosion resistance. The cable is also UL94V-0 certified for safety standards.
