Product Features
Technical Overview
Built to Category 6 standards, this UTP patch cable ensures compliance with industry specifications for network performance. The 24 AWG stranded conductors offer flexibility and resilience, supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications and reducing near-end crosstalk (NEXT) for clearer signal transmission.
The cable's unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction simplifies installation while maintaining effective noise immunity in typical office and data center environments. Its CM (communications multipurpose) jacket rating indicates suitability for use in plenum spaces where fire safety is a priority, without requiring additional conduit.
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 supported by this Cat.6 cable?
This Black Box GigaTrue Cat.6 UTP patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s (Gigabit per second). It is designed to meet Category 6 performance standards, ensuring reliable high-speed connectivity for network applications such as file transfers, streaming, and VoIP communications in business environments.
What type of connectors are on each end of the cable?
Both ends of the cable feature RJ-45 male connectors. These are standard Ethernet connectors with gold-plated contacts for improved signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The connectors are designed with a snagless boot to prevent accidental disconnections and reduce strain during installation and use.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, meaning it does not have additional shielding around the conductors. UTP construction is common for patch cables in typical office and data center environments, offering effective noise immunity and easier installation compared to shielded alternatives, while still meeting Category 6 performance requirements.
What does the CM jacket rating mean?
The CM (communications multipurpose) jacket rating indicates that the cable's PVC jacket is suitable for use in plenum spaces, such as air handling areas, without requiring conduit. This rating ensures the jacket material meets flame resistance and smoke emission standards, making it a safe choice for installations in commercial buildings where fire safety is a priority.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this Cat.6 patch cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. Its 24 AWG stranded conductors are capable of carrying both data and power, making it suitable for devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras that receive power through the Ethernet connection, simplifying cabling and reducing clutter.
What is the warranty coverage for this network cable?
Black Box provides a lifetime limited warranty for this GigaTrue Cat.6 UTP patch cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, offering long-term assurance of quality and reliability for network installations in business and enterprise settings.
