C2G CG01182 Cat6 Slim Utp Patch Cable 5 Feet Purple

Product Description

The C2G / CABLES TO GO - LEGRAND CG01182 is a 5-foot Cat6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) slim ethernet patch cable in purple. Designed for structured cabling and network infrastructure installations, it delivers Cat6-rated performance for data transmission in tight cable management environments. The slim profile reduces bulk in densely packed patch panels and switch enclosures, making it a practical choice for network technicians and IT professionals working in rack-mounted installations, server rooms, or distribution frames where cable routing space is limited.

This cable is suited for horizontal runs, patch panel connections, and switch-to-device links in commercial and residential network installations. The 5-foot length makes it appropriate for short rack-level connections. The purple jacket aids in color-coded cable identification schemes, which are common practice in structured cabling environments following TIA-606 labeling standards.

Key Features

• Cat6 UTP construction supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard network data applications
• Slim jacket design reduces cable diameter for high-density patch panel and switch installations
• Purple jacket supports color-coded cable management and identification
• 5-foot length suited for short rack-level and panel-to-switch connections
• Sold as a single cable unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Cat6 UTP patch cable compatible with standard RJ45 ports on network switches, patch panels, routers, and network interface cards in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by network technicians or low-voltage cabling professionals. No tools are required for patch cable termination as the cable uses pre-terminated RJ45 connectors. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling installations and ensure cables are not routed near high-voltage lines without proper separation. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius of Cat6 cable to maintain signal integrity.
