Black Box EVNSL641-06IN Cat6 550-MHz Snagless Stranded UTP Patch Cable Blue

SKU CH-SX4K-E4T4B

Cat 6 UTP patch cable tested to 550 MHz with snagless boots and 50-micron gold contacts for reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections

  • Cat6
  • ColorBlue
  • Cat 6 cable tested to 550 MHz for high-speed Gigabit Ethernet performance
  • 24 AWG stranded conductors with 50-micron gold contacts ensure reliable signal conductivity
  • Snagless boots protect RJ45 connectors from damage during installation and removal
  • Rated for 750 mating cycles providing durable long-term connection reliability
  • Exceeds ANSI/TIA 250 MHz Category 6 specification reducing crosstalk and signal loss

Cat 6 550-MHz bandwidth

This Black Box GigaTrue patch cable is built for Gigabit Ethernet networks that need verified headroom above the base Category 6 specification. It suits installers and IT teams who want factory-tested performance for voice, data, audio, video and Power over Ethernet runs.

Tested to 550 MHz with 24-AWG conductors

The four-pair stranded construction is qualified at 550 MHz, well beyond the 250 MHz Category 6 minimum, lowering impedance, structural return loss and near-end crosstalk. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 microns maintain conductivity across repeated patching, while the 750-cycle connector life supports frequent moves and re-terminations.

Snagless boots and CM-rated PVC jacket

Moulded snagless boots protect the RJ45 latch during pulls through cable managers and tight pathways, adding strain relief without increasing bulk. The CM-grade PVC jacket meets general-purpose in-wall fire ratings, so the cable handles everyday rack and workstation routing without special conduit.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat6 550-MHz patch cable work with my older Cat5e router and switch?

Yes, the Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e equipment and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support.

How can I verify the cable is delivering the tested 550-MHz performance after I plug it in?

Run a cable certifier or a Gigabit link test; a clean 1-Gbps connection with low error counters confirms the 550-MHz rating.

Does the 6-inch blue cable come with the snagless boots already fitted, or do I need to buy them separately?

The snagless boots are moulded on each RJ45 connector at the factory, so nothing extra is required.
