Belkin Cat6 3 ft Ethernet Cable

This Belkin Category 6 patch cable carries a 3 ft RJ-45 to RJ-45 link for desktop or patch-panel connections. It is built for networks that need Gigabit Ethernet support and improved return-loss performance over older Cat5 runs. The green jacket makes the cable easy to identify in a busy rack or under a desk.

Gold-plated connectors for clear signals

Each end uses 50-micron gold-plated contacts to maintain clean transmissions and resist corrosion. The cable meets and exceeds Category 6 performance requirements and delivers a 40 percent improvement in return loss compared with Cat5 wiring. It needs only a free RJ-45 port on each device and frees up bandwidth headroom for 100BASE-T and Gigabit traffic.

Ideal for short Gigabit links

Suited to home-office drops, patch-panel cross-connects or any 3 ft run that demands Cat6 reliability. Not for buyers who need longer reach, different colour coding, shielded construction or fibre-optic media.

Questions about this item

How does the 3 ft length affect signal integrity at Gigabit speeds?

The cable meets Category 6 performance requirements and improves return loss by 40 percent, so the short run preserves full Gigabit throughput.

Will the 50-micron gold-plated connectors run hot or draw extra power during continuous use?

Passive copper cables generate no heat and consume no power; the gold plating only protects the contact surface from corrosion.

What devices must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends use RJ-45 male connectors, so you need two pieces of equipment — such as a router, switch, PC or NAS — each with an RJ-45 network jack.
