Belkin 20ft CAT6 Slim Gigabit Cable
This Belkin CAT6 patch cable connects computers, routers and switches to a wired LAN or broadband modem. Its 20ft length suits desktop-to-wall runs in home offices, small-business workstations or dorm rooms where a tidy, reliable link is needed. The slim profile eases routing through tight cable trays and around furniture legs.
Upgrade from older CAT5 or damaged patch leads
Replacing a legacy CAT5 cord with this CAT6 cable unlocks the full 1000BASE-T gigabit potential already present in most modern routers and NICs. The jump is worth it when file transfers, video calls or backups stall at 100 megabits because the old cable only uses two wire pairs. Snagless boots also stop the tabs snapping off during frequent re-patching.
28 AWG stranded copper with 50-micron gold contacts
Four twisted pairs carry gigabit traffic up to the rated 1000 Mbps with headroom for 100BASE-TX fallback on legacy gear. The 28 AWG conductors keep the cable flexible for patch-panel density, but runs beyond the installed 20ft will require a coupler or a longer single length. UTP construction offers no shielding against heavy EMI in industrial cabinets.

Questions about this item
What connector type and cable length does this Belkin CE001B20-S use for a standard network port?
The cable has RJ45 male plugs on both ends and is 20 feet long, fitting any standard Ethernet jack on routers, switches or PCs.
How do you seat the snagless RJ45 plugs without damaging the latch, and what internal feature keeps the wires aligned?
Press the plug straight in until the molded latch clicks; internal load bars hold each conductor in the correct position for consistent performance.
When should the cable be replaced if the gold-plated contacts wear or the PVC jacket splits?
Replace it if the 50-micron gold contacts show corrosion, the snagless latch breaks, or the PVC jacket cracks and exposes the 28 AWG stranded copper pairs.
