What this cable is

This Belkin Cat 6 Ethernet cable measures three feet and uses RJ45 connectors on both ends. The red jacket makes it easy to spot in a crowded rack or behind a desk. It is built for standard gigabit networking between switches, routers and computers.

What to verify first

Check that both devices you plan to link have RJ45 ports and support at least Cat 6 performance. Ensure the three-foot reach is sufficient for the distance between ports without tension. Confirm your existing patch panel or wall jack uses the same wiring scheme.

Who should buy it

Buyers who need a short, colour-coded crossover link for direct device-to-device connections will find this cable fits the task. It is not suited for runs longer than three feet or for installations that require plenum-rated jackets. Users needing angled or slim connectors should look elsewhere.

FeaturesHow does a Cat 6-patch cable affect your network?
It's like when you replace one blocked pipe in your plumbing line and suddenly the flow increases, the transfer is more fluid and the whole system is improved.
The RJ45 high-performance Category 6 UTP patch cable is the perfect performance upgrade.
It is used to replace any Cat 5 cable that fails to support 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet.
