What this cable does

The Belkin A3L980-12-GRN-S is a 12 ft Category 6 UTP patch cable with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It replaces older Cat 5 cables that cannot support 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The green jacket provides easy colour coding in a rack or at a desk. Snagless moulded strain relief protects the locking tabs during frequent moves.

Who it suits and who it does not

This cable suits anyone upgrading a home or office link to Gigabit performance without shielded cabling. It is not for installers who need shielded twisted pair for high-interference environments. It is not for runs that exceed the 12 ft length supplied. Buyers needing a different colour for cable management should choose another variant.

Capacity and headroom

The Cat 6 rating comfortably handles 100 Base-T and Gigabit Ethernet traffic across the full 12 ft run. Headroom exists for standard gigabit workloads such as file transfers, streaming and gaming. The unshielded design runs out of protection in electrically noisy areas like industrial panels or dense cable bundles where alien crosstalk becomes an issue.

  • Snagless molded strain relief protects connectors during frequent plugging

It is used to replace any Cat 5 cable that fails to support 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet, and comes with RJ45 male-to-male connectors and a snagless molded strain relief.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports to use this 12 ft Cat 6 cable?

Any router, switch, PC or network-attached storage with standard RJ45 sockets will connect directly to the male-to-male plugs on this green patch lead.

Will this Cat 6 cable work with older Cat 5 or Cat 5e equipment I keep?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors are backward compatible, so the cable links to legacy 100 Base-T gear while still supporting Gigabit Ethernet on newer ports.

How can I confirm the snagless boots are protecting the clips after installation?

Press each connector gently; the molded strain-relief boot should cover the locking tab and stop it catching on adjacent cables when you pull the lead.
