Description

Belkin A3L980-05-BLU-S 5FT Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable

Overview

The Belkin A3L980-05-BLU-S is a 5-foot Category 6 (Cat6) patch cable designed for reliable network connectivity in environments requiring clean cable management. Its snagless boot design prevents damage to the connector tab during installation and removal, crucial for maintaining network integrity in dense server racks or wall-mount patch panels. The blue PVC jacket aids in visual identification and cable routing.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) networks. It supports connections to any network device featuring an RJ45 port, including managed and unmanaged network switches, routers, IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), and workstations. It is suitable for use with devices from brands such as Axis Communications, Hanwha Vision, Hikvision, Dahua, Ubiquiti, and Cisco, provided they utilize standard RJ45 Ethernet interfaces.

Installation Notes

The 23AWG solid copper conductors provide a robust foundation for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbps. The 50-micron gold-plated contacts ensure superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, minimizing signal loss and intermittent connections. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector's locking tab, preventing accidental disconnections or breakage during installation or moves, adds, and changes (MACs).
