Short patch cable for tight runs

The Belkin A3L980-01-BLK-S is a Category 6 patch cable measuring 1 ft with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It suits installers and home users who need a short link between a switch, router or wall jack and a nearby device. The black jacket keeps the run discreet in cabinets or under desks. Lifetime warranty coverage is included by the manufacturer.

Snagless boot eases routing

Snagless moulded boots protect the locking tabs while the cable is pulled through conduit, cable trays or around corners. The 1 ft length leaves no slack to coil, so the run stays tidy without excess bulk. Because the cable is unshielded, avoid routing it parallel to power cables or fluorescent ballasts where electromagnetic interference could degrade signal quality.

Handles gigabit traffic in short hops

Cat 6 construction supports gigabit Ethernet speeds across the 1 ft distance with reduced crosstalk and fewer retransmissions. The cable is not designed for longer horizontal runs or PoE loads beyond the standard specification. Buyers needing extended reach, shielded variants or outdoor-rated jackets should select a different product.
