1ft (0.3m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Patch Cable - Orange
1ft orange Cat6a slim UTP patch cable with 28AWG snagless connectors for high-density networking
The C2G30174 is a 1ft (0.3m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Patch Cable in orange, engineered specifically for high-density cabling environments. This 28AWG slim cable is designed to facilitate better airflow in crowded racks and datacenters by reducing the overall cable diameter to 0.19 in (4.8 mm) ± 0.15mm (0.01 in). By utilizing 28AWG stranded copper conductors, this cable provides the flexibility required for tight-space installations where standard Cat6 cables may be too bulky. It supports data transfer rates up to 10 GBPS and is suitable for applications requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE) or VoIP. The snagless, molded PVC boots provide strain relief and prevent accidental disconnects during installation. This series meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801-1 electrical performance requirements and is backed by a lifetime warranty.
