Belkin Cat 6 patch cable 1 ft red

This Belkin A3L980-01-RED-S is a Category 6 network cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. The one-foot length suits short runs between a switch and a desktop or patch panel. Red jacket colour helps identify the link in a busy rack.

Installers needing a short certified Cat 6 link

The snagless boot protects the latch during frequent moves, and the 50-micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion. Builders who need longer runs, different colours or pre-terminated trunk cables should look at other options.

24 AWG stranded copper conductors

Four twisted pairs of bare stranded copper give flexibility for tight bends behind equipment. Characteristic impedance is specified as 100±15 ohms from 1 to 550 MHz, and conductor resistance is 93.8 ohms per kilometre at 20 °C.

Questions about this item

What type of RJ45 ports must my devices have for this Cat 6 cable to connect?

Both devices need standard RJ45 female ports; the cable has RJ45 male plugs on each end.

Will this 1 ft Cat 6 cable work with my older Cat 5e router and switch?

Yes, Cat 6 is backward compatible with Cat 5e equipment at the lower standard's speeds.

How can I verify the 50 micron gold-plated connectors are making good contact after plugging in?

Check for a firm click, then confirm link lights on both ports and run a speed test.
