Black Box 6ft GigaTrue Cat6 550MHz Ethernet Patch Cable (Red)

The Black Box EVNSL643-0006 is a six foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable that delivers dependable gigabit connectivity for offices, classrooms, data centers, and home labs. Rated for 550 MHz, it moves voice, data, and video traffic smoothly on 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX networks, making it a solid choice for everything from VoIP phones and PoE cameras to switches and Wi-Fi access points.

Inside the red jacket you will find stranded 24 AWG copper conductors that stay flexible, so the cable bends around corners or inside crowded racks without breaking. Each RJ-45 plug uses 50 micron gold-plated contacts to maintain a clean, low-resistance connection even after many insertions. A snagless boot surrounds the latch and helps prevent damage when you pull the cable through bundles or conduit.

Because it exceeds ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 performance requirements, this cable can handle bandwidth-intensive applications with room to spare. Color coding also becomes simpler; the bright red jacket stands out instantly, allowing quick identification of specific network segments during troubleshooting or upgrades.
