C2G 0.5ft Cat6 Shielded Ethernet Patch Cable (Blue)

The C2G 980 is a Cat6 patch cable that measures only 0.5 feet and features shielding along the entire run, giving your network a clean, dependable signal even in electrically noisy environments.

The short length makes it perfect for quick patching inside a rack or cabinet, for connecting a switch to a patch panel, or for linking desktop equipment when you want to avoid extra cable slack. Home offices, data centers, classrooms, and conference rooms all benefit from a cable that fits tight spaces without compromising speed.

Built to the ANSI TIA-568 C.2 Cat6 specification, the cable supports 10 Gigabit applications on runs up to 180 feet and 1 Gigabit up to 328 feet. Each pair is bonded to maintain precise twist spacing, which helps control near-end crosstalk and preserves signal integrity. The overall foil shielding further protects the pairs from electromagnetic interference generated by power lines, lighting, or nearby equipment.

Installation is straightforward thanks to a snagless boot that keeps the RJ-45 clip from catching when you pull the cable through crowded bundles. The blue jacket allows easy color-coding, and additional colors are available if you need a broader labeling system.
