C2G CG00672 Cat6a Snagless Patch Cable 1 Foot Blue

Product Description

The C2G CG00672 is a 1-foot Cat6A snagless unshielded patch cable finished in blue. Cat6A cabling supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at frequencies up to 500 MHz, making it a step up from standard Cat6 in high-density or performance-sensitive network installations. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab from breaking during routing and removal, which is a common failure point in tight cable trays or patch panels. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable for short horizontal runs, patch panel terminations, and structured cabling closets in both commercial and residential applications.

This cable is suited for short-distance connections between network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices in rack environments or wall-outlet-to-device runs. The 1-foot length is commonly used in high-density patch panel installations where cable management space is limited. The blue jacket provides quick visual identification in color-coded network environments, a common practice in data centers and telecom rooms.

Key Features

• Cat6A specification supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 500 MHz bandwidth
• Snagless boot design protects RJ45 clip during installation and removal
• 1-foot length suited for short patch panel and rack connections
• Blue jacket allows color-coded identification in structured cabling environments
• Unshielded (UTP) construction compatible with standard RJ45 keystone jacks and patch panels

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors on each end, suitable for use with Cat6A or backward-compatible Cat6 and Cat5e patch panels, switches, routers, and network interface cards that accept RJ45 connections.

Installation Notes

This cable is typically installed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. No tools are required for patch connections — simply seat the RJ45 connectors fully until the locking tab clicks. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius to prevent degraded signal performance. Power down or disconnect active sessions on sensitive network equipment before swapping patch cables in production environments.
