C2G Legrand CG43170 Cat6 Shielded Solid Cable 150ft

Product Description

The C2G Legrand CG43170 is a 150-foot Category 6 shielded solid-conductor patch cable designed for structured wiring installations in commercial and light industrial environments. The shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, making it suitable for runs near electrical conduit, HVAC equipment, and other noise-generating infrastructure. Solid-conductor wire maintains signal integrity over longer horizontal runs compared to stranded alternatives. This cable is terminated and ready to pull or route through conduit, cable trays, or open plenum pathways depending on the jacket rating of the installed run.

This cable is used in commercial network infrastructure projects, data centers, server rooms, and building automation installations where a reliable Cat6 backbone or horizontal run is required. The blue jacket aids in color-coded cable management schemes common in structured cabling environments. At 150 feet, it covers most standard horizontal run distances within TIA-568 guidelines. Low-voltage electricians, network technicians, and structured cabling contractors are the primary installers for this type of cable.

Key Features

• 150-foot length suits long horizontal runs within standard TIA-568 distance limits
• Category 6 rated for Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data transmission
• Shielded design reduces EMI and alien crosstalk in electrically noisy environments
• Solid-conductor construction maintains signal integrity over extended distances
• Blue jacket supports color-coded cable management in structured cabling systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 shielded solid cable compatible with Cat6 and Cat6-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 network equipment following TIA-568-C.2 wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or structured cabling contractor in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Do not exceed the cable minimum bend radius during routing, and avoid sharp kinks or crushing the jacket. Ensure shielding is properly bonded to ground at termination points to realize the full EMI rejection benefit. De-energize any adjacent circuits and follow site lockout procedures before working in electrical rooms or above drop ceilings.
