Ideal for structured CAT6 networks

This Belkin A3L980-15-YLW-S patch cable connects routers, switches or wall outlets using RJ45 male connectors at both ends. The 15 ft yellow jacket makes cable runs easy to identify in a structured cabling installation. It is designed and tested to support existing CAT6 infrastructure.

Passive cable with gold-plated contacts

As an unshielded twisted-pair cable it draws no power and produces no noise or heat of its own. The 50-micron gold-plated connectors resist corrosion to maintain low contact resistance over time. Snagless moulds protect the locking tabs from damage during routine moves or maintenance.

Consistent throughput on long runs

The Cat 6 specification supports gigabit Ethernet and 100Base-T across the full 15 ft length without the packet loss seen on older CAT5 links. Return loss is improved by 40 percent compared with legacy cabling, reducing retransmissions during sustained data transfers. Lifetime warranty backs the build quality.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the RJ45 male connectors into my router and PC without snapping the tabs?

Push each connector straight in until you hear a click; the snagless moulds shield the locking tabs so they cannot catch on adjacent ports.

Will the gold-plated contacts need cleaning or replacement over time?

The 50-micron gold plating resists oxidation, so the contacts stay conductive for the cable's lifetime without maintenance.

At what point does signal loss limit gigabit speeds on this 15 ft run?

Category 6 performance is certified up to 100 metres, so a 15 ft length stays well within the distance where attenuation becomes the limiting factor.
