30 ft Cat 6 patch cable

The Belkin A3L980-30-BLK-S is a 30 ft Category 6 UTP patch cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is built for wired network connections between routers, switches, computers and other Ethernet devices. The black jacket and snagless, moulded boots protect the locking tabs during installation and removal.

Suits fixed runs up to 30 ft

This length works well for permanent links across a room, through trunking or between floor ports and a desk. Buyers who need a shorter drop, a different colour for cable identification or a shielded cable for high-interference environments should look at other options.

Consistent throughput on long runs

Cat 6 construction supports gigabit speeds over the full 30 ft distance without the signal loss that can appear on longer unshielded runs. The snagless moulded strain relief keeps the connector geometry stable, so repeated plugging and unplugging does not degrade contact quality over time.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports must my router or switch already have for this Cat 6 cable to work?

Any standard RJ45 port on a router, switch or network card will accept the male RJ45 plugs on this cable.

Will this unshielded Cat 6 cable run reliably alongside older Cat 5e patch leads in the same rack?

Yes, Cat 6 is backward compatible with Cat 5e so the two cable types can share a rack without interference.

How can I confirm the 30 ft link is performing at Cat 6 speeds after I plug it in?

Run a speed test between the connected devices and verify throughput reaches the gigabit rates supported by Cat 6.
