Belkin Cat 6 patch cable 5 ft pink

The Belkin A3L980-05-PNK-S is an unshielded Category 6 patch cable fitted with RJ45 connectors at both ends. It measures five feet in length and uses a pink jacket for easy identification in crowded racks or desk runs. The cable is brand new and intended for standard copper Ethernet links.

Suits home and office wiring where a short pink

This cable suits installers who want a colour-coded five-foot run for patch panels, switches or desktop connections. It does not suit runs that require shielded cabling, longer distances, or outdoor and plenum-rated jackets. Buyers needing crossover wiring or fibre should look at different products.

Unshielded UTP construction with RJ45 ends

The single specification that decides fit is the unshielded twisted-pair build rated to Category 6 with standard RJ45 plugs. If the installation calls for foil or braid screening, this cable will not meet that requirement. For unshielded Cat 6 patching at this length, it matches the need.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 5 ft pink Cat 6 cable or a different length for my desk setup?

The 5 ft length works well for short runs between a wall jack and a desktop or laptop on the same desk.

What does the Cat 6 rating mean for actual throughput on my home network?

Cat 6 supports up to 1 Gbps over the full 5 ft run, so a gigabit router and NIC will operate at line speed.

Does the unshielded RJ45 design limit the cable to slower Ethernet standards?

No, the UTP construction with RJ45 connectors still meets Cat 6 specifications for gigabit Ethernet.
