C2G CG03983 Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable 6 Feet Black

Product Description

The C2G CG03983 is a Cat6 snagless patch cable designed for structured network installations in commercial and residential settings. Measuring 6 feet in length and finished in black, this cable provides reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity between network devices. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal, reducing the risk of broken clips and cable damage in high-density patch environments. Licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and IT infrastructure installers use this cable for clean, organized terminations in server rooms, telecom closets, and workstation drops.

This patch cable is suited for connecting switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards in both new construction and retrofit installations. The 6-foot length is a common run for workstation-to-wall-jack connections or short inter-rack links. The black jacket aids in color-coded cable management schemes where category or zone identification is maintained by jacket color.

Key Features

• Cat6-rated construction supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth network applications
• Snagless boot protects RJ45 tab from breakage during installation and repeated moves
• 6-foot length suits workstation drops and short patch panel runs
• Black jacket supports color-coded cable management in structured cabling systems
• RJ45 connectors on both ends for standard Ethernet device termination

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 network equipment using RJ45 ports, including switches, routers, patch panels, and computers.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and IT professionals install patch cables as part of structured cabling systems governed by TIA-568 standards. No special tools are required for connecting pre-terminated patch cables. Ensure the RJ45 connector is fully seated and the locking tab engages before routing the cable. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius for Cat6 cabling.
