C2G (Cables To Go)

What C2G (Cables To Go) does

C2G (Cables To Go) is a connectivity hardware brand founded in 1984, operating as a wholly-owned brand within Legrand AV Inc., the North American AV division of Legrand (Euronext Paris: LR). The company designs and sells physical infrastructure products for professional AV and IT installations, including USB-C and Thunderbolt docking stations, HDMI cables, HDBaseT extenders (signal transmission over single Cat6a cabling up to 328 feet), USB Superbooster extenders, Thunderbolt 5 cables, bulk category cabling, adapters, audio cables, networking accessories, and power solutions. The core technical differentiators are HDBaseT signal extension, Intel-certified Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, and long-distance USB transmission for remote peripherals such as interactive whiteboards, cameras, and printers.

C2G sells exclusively through Legrand AV's authorized dealer, distributor, and reseller network, supported by direct sales directory coverage, an account-based e-commerce portal, and an inventory-finder tool that surfaces real-time availability across channel partners. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with B2B project sales rather than retail volume. Customer segmentation spans corporate enterprise (conference rooms and hybrid-work environments), K-12 and higher education, federal/state/local government (via TAA-compliant SKUs), healthcare, digital signage, and residential — with the first three verticals treated as primary targets.

The brand operates within a broader Legrand AV portfolio (Chief, Middle Atlantic, Da-Lite, Luxul, Vaddio, and others), enabling cross-selling of integrated AV bundles to integrators and specifiers. Geographic reach is global, leveraging Legrand's commercial presence across 25-plus countries in the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific, though brand-level financials are not separately reported. C2G has no independent funding, no disclosed M&A activity, no standalone revenue figure, and no AI or software product surface — its value proposition is anchored in certified, standards-compliant physical connectivity for commercial AV and IT buyers.
