FAQs

What are the key features of the C2G 03985 Cat6 network cable?
The C2G 03985 is a 9-foot Cat6 Ethernet cable featuring snagless unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design, high-quality copper conductors, and RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It includes a molded snagless boot for preventing cable snags during installation and providing strain relief. The cable supports fast Ethernet and Gigabit networks, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video applications.
What is the maximum network speed supported by this Cat6 cable?
This Cat6 cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds and is designed for bandwidth-intensive applications. It meets all Cat6 TIA/EIA standards and can handle data transfer rates up to 1 Gbps (Gigabit per second) at 250 MHz bandwidth. The cable's design minimizes Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels for optimal performance in high-speed networks.
What type of connectors does the C2G 03985 cable use?
The C2G 03985 features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends of the cable. Each end has one RJ-45 male connector, making it compatible with standard Ethernet ports found on computers, routers, switches, and other network devices.
How long is the C2G 03985 network cable?
The C2G 03985 network cable is 9 feet (approximately 2.74 meters) in length. This length makes it suitable for various networking setups, whether connecting devices across a desk or reaching between nearby equipment in an office or home environment.
What is the purpose of the snagless boot feature?
The snagless boot feature serves two important purposes: it prevents the cable from catching or snagging during installation and removal, especially in tight spaces or crowded network racks, and it provides additional strain relief to protect the cable's connection points. This design helps extend the cable's lifespan and maintains network reliability.
