Black Box GigaTrue Cat 6 Patch Cable 5 ft

This Cat 6 UTP patch cable connects network devices with RJ45 connectors at each end. The 550 MHz bandwidth supports Gigabit Ethernet and higher data rates. A 5-foot black jacket keeps short runs tidy on a desk or in a rack.

Suits short Gigabit links not for longer runs

This cable fits workstations switches and patch panels where a five-foot reach is enough. Installers who need ten metres or more should choose a longer length. The unshielded design is not intended for electrically noisy industrial environments.

Cat 6 550 MHz channel rating

The channel-rated 550 MHz performance is the specification that confirms the cable will carry Gigabit and multi-gigabit traffic over its full length. Buyers who require Cat 6a or higher bandwidth must select a different category.

Questions about this item

What network ports must my equipment have to plug in the Black Box GigaTrue Cat 6 cable with RJ45 connectors?

Both devices need standard RJ45 Ethernet ports; the cable fits any switch, router, PC or patch panel that uses that connector.

Will this 550 MHz Cat 6 patch cable work properly with my older Cat 5e wall jacks and switch ports?

Yes, Cat 6 is backward compatible, so the cable will negotiate the highest speed both ends support, typically 1 Gbps on Cat 5e infrastructure.

How can I verify the Black Box GigaTrue cable is performing to its 550 MHz rating after installation?

Use a cable certifier or tester that measures frequency response up to 550 MHz; a pass confirms the channel meets Cat 6 specifications.
