Black Box 6ft CAT6 550MHz Ethernet Cable, Snagless (Orange)

The Black Box EVNSL649-0006 is a six foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable in a vivid orange jacket that has been tested to 550 MHz. By operating well above the 250 MHz Cat6 specification, it provides extra bandwidth headroom for Gigabit Ethernet and other data intensive traffic, so file transfers, video streams, and VoIP calls move without unexpected slowdowns.

The cable uses stranded 24 AWG copper conductors that stay flexible, which makes routing through racks and furniture easier. Each contact is plated with 50 microns of gold to maintain a clean, low-resistance connection and to resist corrosion over time. A snagless boot surrounds the latch, guarding it from catching or breaking when the cable is pulled through tight spaces. The connector is rated for 750 insertion and removal cycles, allowing frequent reconfigurations in patch panels or workstations without worrying about wear.

This model fits naturally in small offices, school labs, server rooms, and home networks. It is equally useful for an AV rack that needs dependable data links, a PoE camera installation that calls for steady power delivery, or a home office where you want a dependable link between a router and a desktop. The six foot length keeps slack under control, and the bright color makes the cable easy to trace during troubleshooting.
