C2G CG43178 – 300ft HDBaseT Certified Cat6a Cable Discontinuous Shi...
Product Overview
The C2G CG43178 300ft HDBaseT Certified Cat6a Cable with Discontinuous Shielding is engineered specifically for HDBaseT AV extension and high-power PoE applications requiring reliable signal integrity over long structured cable runs. HDBaseT certified and TAA compliant, this 300-foot Cat6a cable meets ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a channel requirements and is validated to guarantee consistent performance in conference rooms, digital signage, and commercial AV-over-IP installations where long cable runs between source and display are required.
Product Description
Discontinuous shielding technology provides EMI protection while supporting the high current levels required by Power over HDBaseT (PoH) and high-power PoE applications — where traditional fully-shielded cables can create ground loop issues. The cable is snagless with a molded boot protecting the RJ45 locking tab during installation. Full ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a compliance ensures backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e infrastructure.
This cable is the correct specification for permanent structured cabling runs between HDBaseT transmitters and receivers, HDBaseT AV extenders, and PoE+ or PoH-powered AV devices at distances up to 300 feet. TAA compliance makes it eligible for government and federally funded education procurement.
Key Features
- HDBaseT Certified — Tested and validated to meet HDBaseT Alliance performance and safety standards for guaranteed compatibility with HDBaseT AV extenders.
- 300ft (91.4m) Length — Covers full-length HDBaseT extension runs in large conference rooms, auditoriums, and campus AV installations.
- Discontinuous Shielding — Provides EMI protection while supporting high PoE/PoH current without ground loop interference.
- ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a Certified — Fully tested to Cat6a channel requirements for 10GbE and HDBaseT signal performance.
- TAA Compliant — Trade Agreements Act compliant for government and federally funded education procurement.
- Snagless Molded Boot — Protects RJ45 locking tab during cable pulls and repeated patching.
- PoE and PoH Compatible — Supports Power over Ethernet and Power over HDBaseT high-current applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is HDBaseT certification important for this cable?
HDBaseT certification means the cable has been independently tested and validated by the HDBaseT Alliance to guarantee consistent signal performance with HDBaseT AV extenders. Standard Cat6a cable may meet electrical specs without meeting HDBaseT-specific performance requirements.
- What is discontinuous shielding?
Discontinuous shielding provides EMI protection at intervals along the cable rather than a continuous foil or braid wrap. This allows high PoE/PoH currents to flow without creating ground loop interference — a critical requirement for Power over HDBaseT applications.
- Is this cable TAA compliant?
Yes. The CG43178 is TAA compliant, making it eligible for government and federally funded education projects subject to Trade Agreements Act procurement rules.
- Can this be used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes. Cat6a supports 10GbE at distances up to 100m. This cable meets ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a requirements for 10GbE applications.
