Cat 6 UTP patch cable, 40 ft yellow

This Belkin A3L980-40-YLW-S is an unshielded twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is built to the Cat 6 standard using copper conductors and includes snagless, moulded strain relief. The 40 ft yellow jacket makes it easy to identify in a rack or along a baseboard.

Suits Gigabit Ethernet drops up to 40 ft.

Installers running 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet over copper will find the length and performance rating appropriate. The cable lacks shielding, so environments that require foil or braid for EMI protection should look elsewhere. Buyers needing a different length or colour must choose another part.

40 ft Cat 6 UTP with snagless RJ-45 ends

The decisive spec is the 40 ft Cat 6 unshielded construction with snagless RJ-45 male connectors. It replaces Cat 5 links that cannot support 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet. Confirm the run does not exceed this length and that shielding is not required before ordering.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 40 ft yellow cable or a different length for my run?

The 40 ft length suits runs up to that distance; choose a shorter cable if the path is less than 40 ft to avoid excess slack.

What does the Cat 6 rating mean for my actual network speed?

Cat 6 supports Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Base-T, so the cable will not limit those speeds when installed correctly.

Will the unshielded UTP design with RJ45 connectors cap my throughput?

Unshielded Cat 6 UTP is rated for Gigabit Ethernet; the RJ45 connectors and 2-row staggered pins control cross-talk for that performance level.
