What this cable is and who it fits

The C2G 01176 is a 3 ft Cat6 unshielded patch cord with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. Its 28AWG conductors and slim profile suit tight routing behind desks, in patch panels or through cable-management channels. The orange jacket makes the link easy to identify in dense installations. Buyers who need longer runs or shielded construction should choose a different cable.

Thermals noise and power draw

Passive copper cables generate no heat, produce no audible noise and draw no electrical power during normal network operation. The 28AWG conductors meet the ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 patch-cord performance standard without active components. No cooling, fan control or power-budget planning is required.

Deciding specification

The 36 % diameter reduction versus standard Cat5e patch cords is the single figure that determines whether this cable fits your routing space. If the pathway cannot accommodate a thicker cord, this slim design solves the problem; if space is not constrained, a conventional diameter cable works equally well.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 01176 slim cable without damaging the RJ-45 clip?

The snagless design protects the latch during insertion; push the connector straight into the port until it clicks, and avoid angling the 28AWG conductors which can bend inside the reduced-diameter jacket.

What part of the 01176 cable is most likely to need replacement first?

The RJ-45 male plugs endure repeated mating cycles; the 28AWG stranded conductors and snagless boots resist fatigue, but the gold-plated contacts will eventually wear after hundreds of insertions.

What performance limit appears first when the 01176 cable runs at full 1 Gbps continuously?

The 28AWG unshielded twisted pairs meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 patch-cord limits, so alien crosstalk and insertion loss over the 3 ft length set the practical ceiling before any thermal issue arises.
