Product Features
Technical Overview
Built to Category 6 specifications, this cable supports bandwidth up to 250 MHz, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility and resilience, while the UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) design with Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) performance reduces interference in typical office and data center environments.
The snagless boot design protects the connector latch from accidental damage during installation and removal, enhancing longevity. The cable is PoE (Power over Ethernet) capable, supporting devices that require both data and power over a single connection.
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 length of this Black Box patch cable?
This cable is 1 foot (0.30 meters) long, making it ideal for short-distance connections such as between patch panels and switches in server racks or from wall plates to nearby devices. The compact length helps reduce cable clutter and improves organization in tight spaces.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
Both ends feature RJ-45 male connectors, each with gold-plated contacts. This configuration is standard for Ethernet connections, ensuring compatibility with network devices like switches, routers, computers, and patch panels. The connectors are designed for secure, stable plug-and-play 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 cables are commonly used in office and data center environments where interference is minimal. It includes Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) performance to reduce signal interference.
What does the CM rating on the jacket mean?
CM stands for Communications Multipurpose, indicating the jacket material meets fire safety standards for use in plenum and riser spaces. The PVC jacket is rated for reduced flame spread and smoke generation, making it suitable for installation in commercial buildings and data centers where fire codes apply.
Can this cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this Cat.6 patch cable is PoE capable. It can deliver both data and electrical power to compatible devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras over a single connection, simplifying installations and reducing cable clutter.
What is the warranty for this Black Box cable?
Black Box provides a lifetime limited warranty for this patch cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, offering assurance of durability and reliability for long-term network deployments.
