Belkin A3L980B14-BLU-S Patch Cable - Cat 6 UTP

Overview

The Belkin A3L980B14-BLU-S is a 14-foot, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Category 6 patch cable. It's designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and enterprise network environments, including surveillance system deployments where stable network connectivity is critical. This cable uses standard RJ45 connectors on both ends, facilitating easy plug-and-play integration into network switches, routers, and end devices like IP cameras or NVRs.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a standard RJ45 Ethernet connection. It supports data rates up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and is backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5 standards. It is suitable for connecting devices within a rack or between adjacent network closets, provided the distance does not exceed its 14-foot length. Use this cable for connecting IP cameras to PoE switches, NVRs to network infrastructure, or workstations to network ports.

Installation Notes

Ensure the cable is routed away from sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) such as high-power electrical conduits or fluorescent lighting ballasts to maintain signal integrity and prevent data errors. Avoid sharp bends or kinks, which can degrade performance. The cable is designed for indoor, non-conduit use.
