FAQs

What are the key features of the C2G 00956 Cat6 Ethernet cable?
The C2G 00956 is a 6-inch Cat6 Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Ethernet patch cable featuring gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, a snagless molded boot design, and high-quality copper conductors. It's specifically designed for Gigabit networks requiring bandwidth-intensive applications, meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 standards, and comes with a lifetime warranty. The cable includes features like stranded construction, HDPE insulation, and PVC jacketing, all while being RoHS certified.
What type of connections does this cable have?
This cable features RJ-45 Network Male connectors on both ends (1 x RJ-45 Male on each end). The connectors are gold-plated for optimal conductivity and durability, and include a snagless boot design to prevent catching during installation and provide additional strain relief.
Is this cable suitable for Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, this Cat6 cable is specifically designed for fast Ethernet and Gigabit computer networks. It's ideal for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video distribution applications. The cable meets all Cat6 TIA/EIA standards and features bonded pairs to maintain twist-spacing, which helps reduce impedance and structural return loss (SRL) for optimal Gigabit performance.
What is the length of this Ethernet cable?
This C2G Ethernet cable is 6 inches (approximately 15.24 centimeters) in length. This short length makes it ideal for close-proximity connections, such as connecting network devices in a rack or cabinet, or for reducing cable clutter in tight spaces.
What certifications and standards does this cable meet?
The cable meets several important certifications and standards including TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1, Draft 9, and T568B wiring specifications. It's also RoHS certified, making it environmentally friendly. These certifications ensure the cable meets industry standards for performance, reliability, and environmental responsibility.
