Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 patch cable incorporates advanced technical features to maintain network integrity and performance. The shielded twisted pair (STP) design uses individual foil shielding around each twisted pair to protect against external noise and interference, which is critical for maintaining signal quality in environments with high electromagnetic activity. The cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, allowing both data and power transmission over a single connection for compatible devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points.
Minimized Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) engineering reduces signal interference between adjacent pairs, enhancing data integrity at high frequencies. The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors provide flexibility and durability for repeated bending and routing. Connectors are molded directly onto the cable ends to prevent pull-out and ensure a secure, reliable termination that withstands physical stress.
Key Product Advantages
This cable delivers several distinct advantages for network installations. The combination of Cat6 performance and STP shielding ensures reliable high-speed connectivity even in electrically noisy environments, making it suitable for industrial settings or offices with dense electronic equipment. The snagless boot design prevents accidental disconnection in crowded patch panels or racks, reducing downtime and maintenance efforts.
High-Speed Performance
Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 180 feet and 1 Gigabit up to 328 feet, enabling fast data transfers for bandwidth-intensive tasks like video streaming, large file transfers, and HDBaseT applications.
- ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Cat6 compliant
- Minimized NEXT for reduced interference
Durable Construction
Built with a PVC jacket and molded connectors for long-term reliability. The gold/nickel-plated contacts resist oxidation and ensure consistent electrical connectivity over time.
- Stranded conductors for flexibility
- Standard non-rated jacket for general use
Deployment / Use Cases
This 1-foot Cat6 STP patch cable is ideal for short-distance connections where space is limited and performance cannot be compromised. It is commonly used to link network adapters, switches, routers, and hubs in server racks, network cabinets, or desktop setups. The shielding makes it particularly effective in environments with potential interference from power cables, fluorescent lighting, or industrial machinery.
Typical applications include connecting a wall jack to a computer in an office, linking a switch to a router in a home network, or patching devices in a data center rack. It also supports HDBaseT for audio/video distribution over Ethernet. The black color allows for discreet installation or color-coding in organized network systems.
Data Center & Office Use
Perfect for high-density patch panels where snagless boots prevent latch damage and STP shielding maintains signal clarity amid electronic noise.
Home & Small Business Networks
Provides reliable Gigabit or 10-Gigabit connections between devices like gaming consoles, NAS units, and smart home hubs, with PoE support for powered devices.
Physical Profile
This patch cable has a compact 1-foot length, making it ideal for tight spaces without excess cable clutter. The black PVC jacket offers a professional appearance and mild resistance to abrasion. Weighing just 0.96 ounces, it is lightweight and easy to manage in cable bundles. The snagless boot extends slightly beyond the RJ-45 connector to protect the locking tab, while the overall flexible design allows for easy routing around corners or through cable management sleeves.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the difference between STP and UTP in this Cat6 cable?
This cable uses Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) construction, which includes individual foil shielding around each twisted pair of wires. This provides extra protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk compared to Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cables. STP is recommended for environments with high electrical noise, such as near power lines, industrial machinery, or in dense data center racks, to maintain signal integrity and performance.
Can this cable support 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds?
Yes, this Cat6 cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 180 feet (55 meters). It is designed to handle high-bandwidth applications like 4K video streaming, large file transfers, and network backups. For distances up to 328 feet (100 meters), it supports 1 Gigabit Ethernet, making it versatile for both short-range high-speed and longer standard-speed connections.
What does 'snagless boot' mean on this patch cable?
The snagless boot is a protective rubber or plastic cover that extends over the RJ-45 connector's locking tab. This design prevents the tab from catching on other cables, ports, or rack components when inserting or removing the cable in tight spaces. It helps avoid damage to the connector latch, reducing the risk of disconnections and extending the cable's lifespan in high-density patch panel environments.
Is this cable suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this Cat6 patch cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It can deliver both data and electrical power over a single Ethernet connection to compatible devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and LED lighting. The 26 AWG conductors and robust construction ensure safe and efficient power transmission without signal degradation.
What is the warranty on this C2G Ethernet cable?
This C2G Cat6 patch cable comes with a lifetime warranty. This covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, providing long-term assurance of quality and reliability. If the cable fails under normal use conditions, C2G will replace it, making it a dependable choice for critical network infrastructure.
Can I use this cable for connecting a computer to a wall jack or switch?
Absolutely. This 1-foot patch cable is ideal for short connections between a computer's Ethernet port and a wall jack, or between a switch and a router in a network setup. Its compact length minimizes clutter, while the Cat6 performance ensures fast and stable connectivity for everyday tasks like internet browsing, video conferencing, and online gaming. The black color blends well with most office or home decor.
