Belkin Cat 6 cable 20 ft

This 20 ft Belkin Cat 6 Ethernet cable upgrades existing structured cabling with improved transmission performance and superior immunity from external noise. It is suited for installers and network owners who need reliable patch links for gigabit infrastructure. Gold-plated 50-micron connectors ensure clear signal transfer.

Snagless RJ45 patch lead

Snagless moulds protect the RJ45 retaining tab from damage during routing and repeated insertion. The design frees up installation time by reducing the risk of broken clips that require re-termination. It fits standard Cat 6 keystones, panels and switch ports without additional hardware.

40 percent return loss improvement

The cable delivers a 40 percent improvement in return loss over legacy Cat 5 links, supporting clean 100Base-T and gigabit Ethernet traffic. It comfortably handles standard gigabit throughput while the copper construction runs out of headroom for multi-gigabit or 10GBASE-T distances beyond the Category 6 specification.
