Belkin Cat6 RJ45 Patch Cable 9.84 ft

This Belkin A3L980-10 is a Category 6 patch cable designed for wired network connections. It measures 9.84 ft and uses RJ45 male connectors on both ends. The cable contains four twisted pairs of stranded copper wires to reduce crosstalk. It suits home or office links to routers, switches or wall outlets.

Ideal for Gigabit LAN wiring.

The cable supports 100-1000BASE-T networks, making it suitable for standard Gigabit Ethernet runs. Gold-plated contacts at 50-micron thickness help maintain a clean signal over the full length. Buyers needing shielded construction for high-interference environments should look elsewhere. It is also not intended for outdoor or direct-burial use.

Unshielded UTP design with 50-micron gold contacts

The single specification that decides fit is the unshielded twisted-pair construction combined with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 plugs. This combination delivers reliable performance for typical indoor patching up to 1000 Mbps. If your installation requires foil or braid shielding, this cable will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What connectors does the Belkin A3L980-10 use for its 9.84 ft length?

The cable has RJ45 male plugs on both ends, each with 50-micron gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer.

How do I plug the A3L980-10 into a router or PC without damaging the latch?

Align the RJ45 plug with the port, press straight in until the plastic tab clicks, and pull the cable body — not the tab — when removing it.

When should I replace this Cat6 patch cable after regular use?

Replace it if the latch breaks, the jacket shows kinks or cuts, or connectivity drops on 100-1000BASE-T networks.
