C2G 125ft Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable (Gray)

Overview

The C2G 27138 is a 125 foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed to establish a stable and high-speed connection between network devices. It supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds and uses unshielded twisted pair copper wiring to minimize interference for data, voice, and video transmissions. This cable is ideal for linking devices across longer distances without additional connectors, making it suitable for offices, schools, and home networks.

Key features

• 125 foot length allows direct connections between distant network racks or devices without extra couplers
• Cat6 standard ensures reliable support for bandwidth-intensive applications like streaming and large file transfers
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ-45 latch from damage during installation or cable pulls
• RJ-45 connectors provide compatibility with common networking equipment such as switches, routers, patch panels, and computers
