C2G CG00952 Cat6 Snagless Utp Patch Cable 6 Inch Blue

Product Description

The C2G CG00952 is a 6-inch Cat6 snagless unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable in blue. It is designed for short-run structured cabling applications where a clean, low-profile connection is needed between two nearby network ports or devices. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal, reducing connector damage in dense patch panel environments. Licensed electricians, low-voltage cabling contractors, and IT infrastructure technicians are the typical installers of this cable type.

This cable is suited for use in network closets, server racks, and equipment cabinets where port-to-port distances are minimal. The 6-inch length keeps cable management tight and organized inside patch panels, switches, and structured wiring enclosures. It performs well in both commercial and residential low-voltage data installations where Cat6 performance is required.

Key Features

• 6-inch length ideal for short port-to-port runs in patch panels and switch stacks
• Cat6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data applications
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 latch during installation and removal
• Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction for standard structured cabling environments
• Blue jacket color for easy visual identification and cable management

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 UTP patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network-enabled devices following TIA-568 structured cabling standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians typically install Cat6 patch cables as part of structured cabling systems governed by TIA-568 and local low-voltage codes. Power down or disconnect active network equipment before repatching to avoid data interruption. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and avoid routing alongside high-voltage conductors to prevent interference. The snagless boot should be pulled back before insertion to ensure the latch seats fully in the port.
