Purpose-built patch cable

The Black Box CAT6PC-006-BL is a six-foot Category 6 UTP patch cable terminated with RJ-45 male plugs on both ends. Its stranded conductors and snagless moulded boots make it suited for workstation-to-switch links, temporary test runs or any short copper drop where frequent re-seating is expected.

Build integration

The cable plugs directly into any standard RJ-45 port on a router, switch, patch panel or network interface card without adapters. Its unshielded construction keeps the diameter slim for tight cable-management channels and leaves grounding requirements unchanged.

What the bundle changes

A two-year limited warranty covers the assembly against defects in materials or workmanship. The blue jacket provides instant visual identification in dense patch fields, reducing trace time during moves, adds or changes.

Questions about this item

How far can the 6 ft cable reliably carry a 250 MHz signal?

The cable is rated for 250 MHz over its full 6 ft length, which is within the standard Category 6 distance for patch cords.

Does the stranded UTP construction run hotter or draw more power than solid shielded cable during all-day use?

The cable is passive and carries only data signals, so it generates no measurable heat and draws no power of its own.

What devices must already have RJ-45 ports for this patch cord to work?

Both ends use RJ-45 male connectors, so each connected device needs a matching RJ-45 female jack.
