Black Box CAT6 patch cable 3 ft

This Yellow Category 6 patch cable measures 3 ft (0.9 m) and is built to industry-standard requirements. It is tested to 250 MHz performance for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The cable uses stranded conductors and features molded snagless boots on both RJ-45 male connectors for strain relief and tab protection. It carries voice, data, audio/video and PoE signals.

Suited for short Gigabit links, not for longer runs

The 3 ft length fits patch-panel-to-switch jumps, desktop-to-wall-plate connections or tight rack spaces where slack must be avoided. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs, outdoor burial rating or shielded construction for high-EMI environments should look at other cable types. The stranded design favors flexibility over the solid-core preference of some permanent-installation specs.

Snagless boots and color coding simplify installs

Molded snagless boots protect the RJ-45 tabs from catching during dense cable management and provide strain relief at each connector. The Yellow jacket allows quick visual identification in multi-color wiring schemes without adding labels. No software, drivers or additional accessories are bundled with this cable.

Questions about this item

What devices must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to connect them?

Any network equipment with standard RJ-45 jacks — switches, routers, patch panels, PCs or PoE devices — will accept the 45-pin connectors on each end of this 3 ft Cat 6 patch cord.

Will this stranded Cat 6 cable work reliably with older Cat 5e patch panels and switches?

Yes, the 250 MHz tested Cat 6 cable is fully backward compatible, so it will link at the highest speed the older Cat 5e hardware supports without any configuration changes.

How can I confirm the link is running at Gigabit speeds after plugging in this yellow 3 ft cable?

Check the port LEDs on both connected devices; a steady or blinking amber/green Gigabit indicator shows the 250 MHz Cat 6 cable has negotiated a 1 Gbps connection.
