C2G CG00843 Cat6 Snagless Stp Patch Cable Red

Product Description

The C2G CG00843 is a Cat6 snagless shielded twisted pair (STP) patch cable in red. It is designed for structured cabling installations where electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is required. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and cable management, reducing the chance of accidental disconnection or boot breakage. This cable is suited for use by network technicians, low-voltage installers, and IT professionals working in commercial or residential data environments.

This patch cable is used to connect network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels, and workstations. The red jacket color supports color-coded cable management schemes, making it easier to identify specific runs or network segments at a glance. It is appropriate for structured wiring closets, server rooms, and desktop drops where Cat6 performance is required.

Key Features

• Cat6 shielded twisted pair (STP) construction for EMI protection
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and patching
• Red jacket for color-coded cable management
• RJ45 connectors on both ends for standard Ethernet connectivity
• Suitable for use in commercial and residential low-voltage network installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 STP patch cable compatible with RJ45 Ethernet ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards meeting Cat6 or Cat5e specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or network installer in accordance with applicable structured cabling standards such as TIA-568. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. Do not route alongside high-voltage power cables without proper separation to maintain shielding effectiveness. Verify all RJ45 connections are fully seated before securing cable runs.
