Patch cable for short runs

This Belkin Cat 6 patch cable measures 1 ft and uses unshielded twisted-pair construction with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. The purple jacket provides easy colour coding in dense patch panels or desk setups. Snagless boots protect the locking tabs during repeated insertion and removal.

Suited to rack patches and desk links

Installers who need a very short, factory-terminated link between a switch port and a patch panel, or between a wall outlet and a nearby device, will find the 1 ft length convenient. Builders who require longer horizontal runs, shielded cabling or plenum-rated jackets should look at a different cable type.

Cat 6 UTP rating decides the fit

The cable is rated to the Cat 6 performance class without shielding, so it supports the same bandwidth as other Cat 6 UTP cords but offers no protection against external electromagnetic interference. Verify that the installation environment and required link class match an unshielded Cat 6 patch cord before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the 1 ft Cat 6 cable reach between devices on the same desk?

At 1 ft the purple patch cable is intended for very short runs such as side-by-side equipment on a bench or rack shelf.

How can I confirm the Cat 6 link is running at gigabit speed after I plug it in?

Check the connection LEDs on both ports; a solid amber or green indicator typically shows a 1 Gbps negotiated link.

Does the box include only the purple snagless Cat 6 cable or are extra couplers supplied?

The package contains the single 1 ft RJ-45 male-to-male patch cable; no additional couplers or accessories are included.
