Belkin A3L980-14-BLU 14ft Cat6 Patch Cable Blue
Overview
The Belkin A3L980-14-BLU is a 14-foot Category 6 (Cat6) Ethernet patch cable, finished in blue. This cable is designed to provide reliable, high-speed network connectivity for data transmission in IT and surveillance environments. Its specific length and color-coding facilitate organized and efficient network infrastructure deployment, particularly in racks or structured cabling systems where clear identification of cable runs is critical. This cable supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) over shorter distances and up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) at its full 14-foot length, making it suitable for connecting network devices like cameras, NVRs, switches, and workstations.
Compatibility
This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards, ensuring broad interoperability. It is designed to work with any standard RJ45 Ethernet port found on network switches, routers, IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), servers, and computers. The blue color aids in visual identification within a mixed-cable environment, helping to distinguish network runs from power or other cable types. It is suitable for use with devices requiring up to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) network speeds, provided the connected devices and network infrastructure support these standards and the cable length is within the 10GbE specification limits (typically 55 meters).
Installation Notes
The cable features snagless boots to protect the RJ45 connectors during installation and removal, preventing damage to the locking tab. Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending radius (minimum 4x cable diameter) to maintain signal integrity and prevent internal conductor damage. For optimal performance, avoid running this cable parallel to high-voltage power lines or in areas with significant electromagnetic interference (EMI) without proper shielding or separation.
