Belkin Cat 6 patch cable RJ45 male-to-male 2ft red

SKU CH-ZC91-1C3SF

A 2 ft red Cat 6 patch cable with RJ45 male connectors and snagless strain relief for Gigabit Ethernet upgrades

  • Cat 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds
  • Snagless molded strain relief protects connector tabs
  • RJ45 male-to-male connectors fit standard ports
  • Two-foot length suits short-distance connections
  • Red jacket allows quick cable identification

What this cable does

The Belkin Cat 6 patch cable connects two RJ45 ports with a 2 ft red cord. It replaces older Cat 5 links that cannot handle 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The snagless moulded strain relief protects the connector tabs during repeated plugging and unplugging. Suitable for home, office or patch-panel runs.

The spec that matters

This cable is rated for Category 6 performance, supporting up to 100 Base-T and Gigabit Ethernet. The four twisted pairs use UTP construction with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. No shielding or higher category rating is present.

Who should buy it

Buyers needing a short, pre-terminated Cat 6 link for a router, switch or wall jack will find this length convenient. It is not for installers who require bulk cable, shielded variants, or runs longer than the supplied 2 ft. Buyers needing outdoor-rated or plenum-rated jackets should look elsewhere.

  • Cat 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds
  • Snagless molded strain relief protects connector tabs
