C2G C2G30187 Cat6a Slim Patch Cable 25 Ft

Product Description

The C2G C2G30187 is a 25-foot Cat6a slim patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Built to the Cat6a standard, it supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at frequencies up to 500 MHz, making it a reliable choice for high-density patch panel work and switch-to-server runs. The slim form factor reduces cable bulk in tight spaces such as server rack enclosures and high-density patch bays. Licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and network installers handle this type of cable in both new construction and retrofit projects.

This patch cable is suited for horizontal and equipment-room cabling in data centers, server rooms, telecom closets, and office network deployments. The 25-foot length provides enough reach for medium-distance rack-to-rack or wall-outlet-to-device runs. Its slim jacket design makes it particularly useful where cable management space is limited and airflow through rack enclosures is a concern.

Key Features

• Cat6a specification supports 10GbE bandwidth at up to 500 MHz
• Slim jacket design reduces bundle diameter in high-density installations
• 25-foot length suitable for equipment-room and horizontal short runs
• Sold as a single cable unit for flexible ordering quantities

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable compatible with standard RJ45 ports on Cat6a and backward-compatible Cat5e and Cat6 network equipment including switches, patch panels, routers, and network interface cards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers should follow TIA-568 standards when deploying Cat6a patch cables in structured cabling systems. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. Do not route alongside high-voltage power cables without proper separation per NEC guidelines. No tools beyond cable management accessories are typically required for patch cable installation.
