What this cable does and who it suits

The Belkin A3L980-06-BLU-S is a Category 6 unshielded twisted-pair patch cable with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It connects computers, routers, switches or other network devices in a home or office LAN. The six-foot length fits typical desk-to-wall or rack-to-patch-panel runs without excess slack.

Behaviour under sustained load rather than a short

Designed and tested for existing CAT6 structured cabling infrastructure, the cable delivers improved transmission performance and superior immunity from external noise during continuous data transfer. Fewer retransmissions and fewer lost packets mean stable throughput over long sessions such as large file copies, video streaming or backups.

Thermals noise and power draw in normal use

As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, produces no audible noise and draws no electrical power. The snagless boots protect the connector tabs during repeated insertion and removal, while the blue jacket allows quick visual identification in crowded cable runs.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 ft Cat 6 cable run warm or draw extra power when used continuously?

It is a passive copper patch cable with no active electronics, so it generates no heat and draws no power during all-day operation.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to work?

Both endpoints need an RJ45 female jack — typical examples are a router, switch, PC network card, NAS or IP camera.

Will the Cat 6 cable work reliably with older Cat 5e wall jacks and switches?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible; it will link at the highest speed the older Cat 5e hardware supports.
