C2G 5ft Cat6 Shielded Ethernet Patch Cable Snagless (Yellow)

Overview

The C2G 863 is a 5ft Cat6 shielded Ethernet patch cable designed to provide reliable, high-speed network connections by minimizing noise and electromagnetic interference. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 180 feet and 1 Gigabit speeds up to 328 feet, making it suitable for demanding applications such as voice, data, and video distribution in both home and professional environments. Its bright yellow color allows for quick identification in complex network setups, while the snagless connector design helps protect the RJ-45 plug and simplifies cable management in tight spaces.

Key features

• Shielded twisted pair construction reduces Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and structural return loss, ensuring strong signal integrity.
• Bonded twisted pairs maintain clean and stable signals for bandwidth-intensive tasks.
• Snagless connector design protects the RJ-45 plug from damage and eases handling in high-density network environments.
• Bright yellow jacket enhances visibility and quick identification among multiple cables.
• Supports high-speed data transmission suitable for network adapters, hubs, switches, and HDBaseT applications.
