FAQs

What are the key features of the C2G 00985 Cat6 network cable?
The C2G 00985 is a 6-inch Cat6 Snagless Shielded (STP) network cable featuring gold-plated contacts, nickel-plated connectors, and copper conductors. It's designed with snagless boots, molded construction, and stranded copper wiring. The cable is fully shielded (STP) to protect against electromagnetic interference and includes RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. The orange color helps with easy network identification and cable management.
What type of connectors does this network cable use?
This cable features RJ-45 Network Male connectors on both ends. The connectors are nickel-plated with gold-plated contacts for optimal conductivity and durability. The snagless boot design protects the connector's locking tab during installation and removal, preventing snags and damage during cable routing.
Is this cable shielded, and why is that important?
Yes, this is a Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable. The shielding is crucial for protecting data transmission from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and noise. This makes it ideal for environments where EMI might be a concern, such as near power cables or electronic equipment. The shielding helps maintain signal integrity and reduces both impedance and structural return loss (SRL).
What certifications and standards does this cable meet?
The C2G 00985 cable is certified to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6 component requirements and UL94V-0 standards. Each cable is fully tested to ensure compliance with these specifications, guaranteeing high-performance network connectivity and safety standards. These certifications ensure the cable meets industry requirements for high-speed data transmission.
What is the warranty period for this cable?
The C2G 00985 Cat6 network cable comes with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. This warranty coverage demonstrates C2G's confidence in the cable's build quality and long-term reliability, providing customers with assurance for their network infrastructure investment.
