Frequently Asked Questions
What does TAA-compliant mean for network cables?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance ensures the product is manufactured in a qualifying country and meets federal procurement standards. This C2G Cat6a cable is ideal for government contracts, GSA schedules, and institutional buyers requiring domestic manufacturing.
Is this Cat6a cable suitable for plenum installations?
Yes. This shielded network cable is rated CMP (Communications Multi-Purpose) for plenum use, meaning it's safe for air-handling spaces, drop ceilings, and enclosed plenums where fire safety is critical.
What is the snagless boot and why does it matter?
The snagless boot is a protective cover that prevents the RJ45 connector clip from catching on cables or infrastructure during installation. This reduces connector damage and ensures reliable connections in tight spaces.
Can this Cat6a shielded cable support 10 gigabit speeds?
Yes. This cable is 10GBase-T ready and supports both standard gigabit (1Gbps) and 10 gigabit (10Gbps) ethernet networks with minimal signal loss.
