Product identity
This Belkin CAT6 patch cable measures 4 ft and terminates in RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It is built for anyone who needs a short, reliable link between a computer, router, switch or wall plate in a home or office network.
Snagless moulding and gold contacts
The snagless boots protect the connector tabs from breaking during repeated insertion or removal. Gold-plated contacts at 50-micron thickness resist corrosion and maintain low resistance over time.
Capacity and headroom
The cable meets Category 6 performance requirements and supports gigabit Ethernet speeds. It improves return loss by 40 percent compared with older CAT5 cables that cannot handle 100Base-T or gigabit traffic. It is not suited for runs longer than 4 ft or for shielded environments.
