Black Box 10ft GigaTrue 3 CAT6 550MHz Lockable Patch Cable (Blue)

The Black Box C6PC70-BL-10 is a 10 foot CAT6 patch cable that brings dependable performance to data centers, offices, classrooms, or any place that relies on stable Gigabit Ethernet. Tested to 550 MHz, it offers more than double the bandwidth required by the CAT6 standard, giving your network extra headroom for high-throughput tasks such as large file transfers, voice calls, streaming video, and power over Ethernet delivery.

The cable uses stranded 24 AWG conductors arranged in four tightly twisted pairs. This geometry limits impedance and reduces near-end crosstalk, so connected devices communicate without the errors that can slow a busy network. Each RJ-45 plug features 50 micron gold-plated contacts that resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance, even after years of service.

For environments where security and uptime matter, the built-in LockPORT mechanism accepts optional locking pins. A locking pin prevents unwanted removal, while a blocking pin can seal off an unused port. Either option stands up to 750 insertion and removal cycles, making the cable a practical choice for government facilities, healthcare stations, production floors, or any area that experiences frequent moves, adds, and changes.

The snagless boot protects the latch during pulls through tight pathways and keeps the profile low inside dense patch panels. The blue jacket makes the run easy to trace when multiple cables share the same tray or rack.

Whether you are extending an existing CAT6 infrastructure or upgrading older CAT5e lines, the Black Box C6PC70-BL-10 provides the performance, durability, and security features needed to keep your network running smoothly today and ready for tomorrow’s demands.
