With the ever-increasing demand for reliable network connectivity, selecting the right Ethernet cabling is crucial for the success of any IT infrastructure project. C2G offers a wide range of bulk Ethernet cables, including Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a options, available in 1000 ft (304.8m) spools. These cables are engineered to meet the highest industry standards, ensuring optimal performance and long-term durability.
C2G Bulk Ethernet Cables are packaged in a box that uses 40% less cardboard and 40% less plastic. The smaller, lighter, more compact packaging means you save pallet space and shipping costs. Because the internal reel is designed for a smoother, tangle-free cable pulling experience, your installation team will be more productive and get the job done faster. Less plastic and less cardboard means there is less to recycle, which is better for our environment.
C2G’s bulk Ethernet cables are available in various jacket types, including CM-rated for in-wall installations or general use, CMR-rated for vertical riser applications, and CMP-rated for plenum spaces. With multiple colors to choose from, you can simplify cable management and organization, making it easier to identify and troubleshoot connections.
At C2G, we recognize that efficient storage, transportation, and installation are crucial to the success of any large-scale network installation. That is why our bulk Ethernet cables use advanced packaging that is specifically engineered to optimize space and ease of use.
Our innovative packaging reduces the amount of pallet space required, thanks to its ability to compress the cable coil and minimize unnecessary space within the package. This results in reduced shipping costs, as more boxes can be stacked per pallet, offering up to a 40% increase in shipping density. The compact and lightweight design makes handling and transporting these packages easier, cutting down on labor costs and logistical challenges.
The design ensures that the cable can be pulled smoothly and consistently without tangling, allowing for quicker installations, and reducing the risk of cable damage during deployment. This efficiency is especially beneficial in large-scale projects where time and precision are critical.
By optimizing the packaging process to use fewer materials like plastic and cardboard, our solutions help reduce waste when disposed of and reduce costs, making them a more economical choice for large-scale projects. This efficiency in packaging not only lowers production expenses but also translates into savings on shipping and storage, maximizing your budget without compromising on quality.
C2G’s Cat5e Ethernet cables are a versatile and cost-effective solution for a wide range of networking needs. Capable of supporting data frequency ranges up to 350 MHz, these cables are ideal for everyday applications such as office networks, residential setups, and voice and data transmission. Cat5e cables offer reliable performance with minimal interference, making them suitable for both small to medium-sized networks and mixed-use environments.

C2G’s Cat6 Ethernet cables provide enhanced performance for more demanding network environments. Supporting data transmission speeds up to 10Gbps over distances up to 180 ft (55m) and 1Gbps up to 328ft (100m), Cat6 cables are ideal for corporate networks, data centers, and AV (Audio Visual) installations. With improved bandwidth, these cables are designed for environments where higher data throughout and reliable connections are essential.
Bulk Cat6 Cables
For the most demanding network environments, C2G’s Cat6a Ethernet cables deliver maximum performance. These cables support data transmission speeds up to 10Gbps over distances up to 328 ft (100m). Cat6a cables are perfect for high-density data centers, enterprise networks, and applications requiring the highest level of reliability and speed.

In addition to choosing the right category of cable, it is important to select the appropriate jacket type based on your installation environment:
CM-rated: Suitable for in-wall installations or general use, providing a basic level of fire resistance.
CMR-rated (Riser): Designed for vertical installations, such as running audio/visual equipment across floors.
CMP-rated (Plenum): Plenum-rated cables are required for spaces with air circulation, like drop ceilings or raised floors, due to their higher fire resistance and low smoke emissions.
When selecting bulk Ethernet cables, it is important to understand the differences between shielded and unshielded options. Shielded Ethernet cables are designed with an additional layer of protection to guard against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, making them ideal for environments with high electrical noise or proximity to heavy machinery. On the other hand, unshielded cables are more flexible and cost-effective, suitable for typical office environments where EMI is less of a concern. Your specific application will determine the best choice, ensuring you get the most reliable and efficient network performance.
