C2G 2.5ft Cat6 Slim Ethernet Patch Cable (Black)

Overview

The C2G 1101 is a 2.5ft Cat6 slim Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable network connectivity in environments where space is limited and performance is essential. Its 28 AWG conductors reduce the cable diameter by 36% compared to standard Cat6 cables, allowing for better airflow and easier cable management in dense setups. This cable supports bandwidth-intensive applications such as voice, data, and video distribution, making it a practical choice for offices, data centers, and other professional settings.

Key features

• Slim 28 AWG cable design reduces diameter by 36%, improving airflow and simplifying cable routing in tight spaces
• Snagless connectors prevent catching or snagging during installation, while providing extra strain relief for durability
• Optimized for fast Ethernet and high-density network environments, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications
• Minimizes Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) to maintain signal integrity and reduce interference
• Black color offers a clean, professional appearance that blends well with most setups
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and PoE+ for powering compatible devices when proper heat dissipation is ensured

Key specs

• Length: 2.5 feet
• Conductor gauge: 28 AWG
• Cable type: Cat6 slim Ethernet patch cable
• Diameter reduction: 36% smaller than standard Cat6 cables
• Connector type: Snagless RJ45
• Color: Black

Connectivity and compatibility

This cable is designed to connect devices within fast Ethernet networks, including switches, routers, computers, and other networked equipment. Its slim profile makes it especially suitable for high-density patch panels and crowded racks where space and airflow are critical. While it does not meet the recommended conductor size for all ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 applications, it performs well for short cable runs and supports PoE and PoE+ devices when heat dissipation is managed properly.
