C2G 3ft (0.9m) Cat6a Snagless Unshielded (UTP) Slim Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Pink

Overview

The C2G C2G30196 is a 3-foot Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance in a slim and flexible form factor. With 28AWG stranded conductors, this cable has a diameter roughly half that of a typical Cat6a cable, which helps improve airflow in network racks and allows for easier cable management. Its snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch, making installation smoother and preventing accidental damage to the connectors.

Built to meet Cat6a specifications, it supports data rates up to 10Gbps over distances up to 328 feet, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications such as Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices, VoIP phones, and high-resolution AV over IP equipment. The pink jacket also helps with quick identification and color-coding in complex network setups.
