FAQs

What is the main purpose of the C2G 27872 Cat6 Crossover Cable?
The C2G 27872 Cat6 Crossover Cable is primarily designed for direct computer-to-computer connections for file and data sharing without requiring a hub or switch. It can also be used to connect network switches and hubs that don't have uplink ports to other networking equipment. The crossed pin configuration enables peer-to-peer connectivity.
What is the length and color of this network cable?
This network cable is 7 feet (2.13 meters) in length and comes in yellow color. The yellow coloring helps in easy identification and cable management in network setups.
What networking speeds does this Cat6 cable support?
This Cat6 cable supports up to Gigabit Ethernet speeds (1000 Mbps). It's designed with optimized impedance and structural return loss (SRL) specifications to ensure error-free data transmission at these high speeds.
What makes this cable "snagless"?
The cable features a molded, snagless design that prevents the connector from catching or snagging during installation and cable routing. This design doesn't compromise the connector's ability to be inserted and removed from ports, while also providing superior strain relief to protect against cable damage from pulling.
Does this cable meet industry standards?
Yes, this cable meets all TIA/EIA Cat6 standards. Each cable undergoes full testing and quality inspection to ensure compliance with these industry standards, guaranteeing reliable performance and compatibility.
