Description

Belkin A3L980-12-RED-S Cat6 UTP Patch Cable

Overview

The Belkin A3L980-12-RED-S is a 12-foot, Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cat6 patch cable. It features male RJ45 connectors on both ends, designed for terminating network devices and connecting them to switches or patch panels. This red cable aids in visual identification within complex network racks, crucial for maintaining organized and efficient surveillance system infrastructure.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment utilizing RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: network switches, routers, firewalls, IP cameras, NVRs, and workstations. It supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) speeds, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications like video streaming and data transfer common in commercial surveillance deployments. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards.

Installation Notes

Ensure connectors are fully seated in their ports to guarantee a stable connection. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable, as this can degrade signal integrity and performance, particularly at Gigabit speeds. The cable is intended for indoor, non-conduit use.
