GigaTrue 3 Cat.6a UTP Patch Cable

The Black Box GigaTrue 3 is a Category 6a patch cable built for high-speed network links. It uses RJ-45 male connectors on both ends and a shielded, booted design that resists snags and locks securely. The three-foot length suits tight rack or desk runs.

Suited for gigabit and multi-gigabit patching

Network builders who need a short, rugged jumper for patch panels or switches will find the slimline, lockable boots practical. Installers who require longer reach or unshielded cable for different routing constraints should look at other options.

Shielded Category 6a construction

The cable carries a Category 6a rating with full shielding, supporting the bandwidth needed for demanding data applications. RoHS compliance and a lifetime warranty back the build quality.

Questions about this item

Does the GigaTrue 3 Cat.6a UTP patch cable generate noticeable heat when carrying full traffic all day?

No, a passive copper patch cable does not produce measurable heat during continuous data transfer.

What equipment must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends need an RJ-45 jack — typical examples are a switch, router, patch panel, server NIC or desktop network adapter.

Will the snagless boot and lockable tab fit older Cat.5e or Cat.6 wall plates and switch ports?

Yes, the RJ-45 connectors follow the same dimensions, so they mate with legacy ports while the boot protects the latch.
