Purpose-built patch cable

This Belkin Category 6 patch cable measures five feet and terminates in RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is designed for wired network connections between routers, switches, computers or other Ethernet-enabled devices in home or office environments.

Unshielded construction with standard connectors

The cable uses an unshielded twisted-pair design that keeps weight low at approximately 1.60 ounces. Its moulded RJ-45 plugs fit standard Gigabit Ethernet ports without requiring specialised tooling or keystone jacks for basic patching tasks.

Passive operation with no power draw

As a passive copper cable it draws no electricity and produces no audible noise during data transmission. Performance relies on the installed Category 6 infrastructure to deliver improved signal integrity and reduced packet loss over the five-foot run.
