Ready-to-use Cat 6 patch cable

This Belkin A3L980-05-YLW-S cable provides a five-foot Cat 6 UTP link with RJ-45 plugs on both ends. The yellow jacket makes it easy to identify in a crowded rack or desk run. It is designed and tested to support existing Cat 6 structured cabling infrastructure. Improved transmission performance reduces retransmissions and lost packets.

Suited for short desktop or rack connections

The five-foot length fits typical workstation-to-wall or switch-to-patch-panel runs where a short, unshielded cable is preferred. Buyers who need longer reach, shielded construction, or a different jacket colour should look at other options.

Cat 6 unshielded specification

The cable meets Cat 6 performance without shielding, so it works with standard gigabit Ethernet equipment. Verify that your installation does not require shielded cabling before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What length is the Belkin A3L980-05-YLW-S cable and will it reach my wall jack?

The cable measures 5 ft, so it reaches wall jacks or patch panels within that distance from your device.

How do I plug the RJ-45 connectors in correctly without damaging the tab?

Align the clip on each RJ-45 plug with the port cut-out, push straight in until it clicks, and pull the cable body — not the tab — to release.

When should I replace this Cat 6 UTP patch lead?

Replace it if the jacket is kinked, the clip snaps off, or you see intermittent link lights and packet loss on a certified Cat 6 channel.
