C2G CG00955 Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable 6in Red

Product Description

The C2G CG00955 is a 6-inch Cat6 snagless patch cable designed for structured cabling and network equipment connections. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal, reducing cable damage in dense patch panel environments. Cat6 construction supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data transfer applications. The red jacket allows for quick visual identification of specific network segments, VLANs, or priority circuits in rack and wall-mount installations. This cable is sized for short-run connections between adjacent equipment and is commonly installed by network technicians, IT professionals, and low-voltage cabling contractors.

This patch cable is suited for use in server rooms, data centers, telecommunications closets, and office network environments. The 6-inch length is intended for direct equipment-to-equipment connections where a standard-length patch cord would create excess cable management problems. Typical applications include switch-to-patch-panel connections, short hop links between stacked switches, and structured cabling termination panels.

Key Features

• Cat6 construction supports Gigabit Ethernet and 550 MHz bandwidth applications
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 latch tab during frequent insertions and removals
• 6-inch length minimizes cable clutter in high-density rack and patch panel installations
• Red jacket provides visual circuit identification in multi-cable environments
• RJ45 connectors on both ends for standard Ethernet port compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Cat6 patch cable for use with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards in residential and commercial structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling contractors and network technicians typically install this cable in structured cabling systems. No special tools are required beyond standard patch cord installation practices. Ensure ports are free of dust and debris before insertion. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance in Cat6 installations.
