Belkin Cat 6 snagless patch cable

The Belkin A3L980-10-PUR-S is a ten-foot purple Category 6 Ethernet cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It uses 50-micron gold-plated contacts and snagless boots to protect the locking tab during installation. The unshielded construction meets Cat 6 performance requirements for structured wiring.

For installers needing a single purple Cat 6 link

This cable suits anyone adding or replacing a patch lead in a rack, wall plate or desktop switch where a ten-foot purple run keeps colour-coded tidy. It is not for runs that require shielded twisted pair, plenum-rated jackets or lengths beyond the single ten-foot piece supplied.

Cat 6 rating with 40 percent return-loss improvement

The decisive specification is the Category 6 rating, which supports 100Base-T and gigabit Ethernet while improving return loss by 40 percent over older Cat 5 cables. If your infrastructure demands Cat 6a, Cat 7 or shielded performance, this unshielded Cat 6 cable will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What type of RJ-45 ports must my devices have to use this Cat 6 cable?

Both devices need standard RJ-45 female ports. The cable has RJ-45 male connectors on each end and is rated for Cat 6 performance.

Will this 10 ft purple cable work if I keep my older Cat 5 patch panel?

Yes. The Cat 6 cable is backward compatible with Cat 5 equipment, though the link will run at the lower Cat 5 speed.

How can I verify the 50-micron gold-plated connectors are seated correctly after installation?

The snagless mold protects the RJ45 tab; a firm click and solid link lights on both ports confirm proper seating.
