Product Features
Technical Overview
This Category 6 UTP patch cable adheres to industry standards for performance and reliability. It utilizes 24 AWG stranded copper conductors to ensure consistent signal transmission over its 7-foot length. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design minimizes crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, supported by features like Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) performance for clear data integrity.
The RJ45 connectors are built with gold-plated contacts to maintain low resistance and high conductivity, essential for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications. The CM-rated PVC jacket provides flame-retardant properties suitable for in-wall installations, while the snagless boots protect the latch mechanism from damage during frequent use.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Cable Length, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this cable?
This Black Box GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s (Gigabit per second), making it suitable for high-speed Ethernet networks, including applications like file transfers, streaming, and VoIP.
Does this cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, the cable is PoE compatible. Its 24 AWG conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure efficient power delivery alongside data transmission, ideal for devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.
What does the CM rating on the jacket mean?
The CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating indicates that the PVC jacket meets flame-retardant standards for use in commercial buildings. It is suitable for in-wall installations and plenum spaces where fire safety is required.
Are the connectors shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, meaning it does not have additional shielding around the conductors. It relies on twisted pair design to reduce interference, making it effective for most office and data center environments.
What is the advantage of the snagless boot design?
The snagless boots protect the RJ45 connector latches from getting caught on other cables or equipment, preventing accidental disconnections and reducing wear. This design enhances durability in high-density cable setups.
Can this cable be used for outdoor installations?
No, this cable is designed for indoor use. The PVC jacket is CM-rated for commercial indoor environments, but it is not weatherproof or UV-resistant. For outdoor applications, a specifically rated outdoor Ethernet cable is recommended.
