Product Features
Technical Overview
Built to Category 6 specifications, this UTP patch cable ensures compliance with industry standards for network performance. The 24 AWG stranded conductors enhance flexibility and durability, making the cable resistant to breakage from repeated bending or movement. The absence of shielding (UTP) simplifies installation while maintaining reliable data transmission in typical office and data center environments.
Key technical attributes include support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, lockable connectors for secure mating, and features like Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) mitigation to reduce signal interference. The cable is environmentally friendly and backed by a lifetime limited warranty, reflecting its robust construction and long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the length of this Black Box patch cable?
This Black Box GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 UTP patch cable is 5 feet long, which is approximately 1.52 meters. This length is ideal for short-distance connections in patch panels, server racks, or between network devices and wall outlets, minimizing excess cable while providing sufficient reach for typical installations.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
The cable features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends, each with gold-plated contacts. This configuration is standard for Ethernet patch cables, ensuring compatibility with most network equipment like switches, routers, patch panels, and computers. The connectors are designed for secure mating and reliable data transmission.
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 electromagnetic interference is minimal, offering a cost-effective and flexible solution for Gigabit Ethernet networks without the need for grounding.
What does the CM jacket rating mean?
The CM (Communications Riser) jacket rating indicates that the cable is suitable for use in vertical riser applications, such as running between floors in a building. This rating ensures the jacket material meets specific fire-resistance and smoke-generation standards, making it a safe choice for installations in plenum spaces or riser shafts.
Can this cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this Cat.6 patch cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It is designed to carry both data and electrical power to devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, or wireless access points, eliminating the need for separate power cables. The 24 AWG conductors and robust construction ensure reliable power delivery alongside data transmission.
What is the warranty for this network cable?
Black Box provides a lifetime limited warranty for this GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 UTP patch cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, reflecting the manufacturer's confidence in its durability and performance. It offers peace of mind for long-term deployments in commercial or institutional settings.
