FAQs

What are the key features of the Black Box GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable?
The Black Box GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable features premium performance with 550-MHz testing and 1-Gbps data transfer rate, exceeding standard Cat.6 specifications. It includes 50-micron gold-plated contacts, 24-AWG four-pair construction, and a patented LockPORT boot system for security. The cable supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), features snagless boots, and offers NEXT (Near End Cross Talk) reduction. It's also equipped with a rugged, hard-polymer boot and plug integration for enhanced durability, with connectors rated for 750 insertion/extraction cycles.
What security options are available with this network cable?
The cable features a unique LockPORT security system with two locking options: Red Pin for preventing unauthorized access in mission-critical areas and publicly accessible ports, requiring a removal tool to unlock; and Green Pin for preventing accidental disconnects in office and industrial settings, featuring butterfly tabs for tool-free removal. These security features can be added by purchasing the locking pins separately, allowing users to secure network ports without buying new patch cords.
What are the technical specifications of this Cat.6 cable?
This Cat.6 cable features 24-AWG copper conductors, 1 Gbps data transfer rate, and testing up to 550-MHz performance. It's equipped with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with gold plating for superior conductivity. The cable is unshielded (UTP) with a CM-rated PVC jacket, and includes features like NEXT reduction and PoE support. It meets or exceeds ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 Class E standards.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
The Black Box GigaTrue 3 Cat.6 cable is compatible with multiple network devices including wallplates, network devices, and patch panels. It's ideal for bandwidth-intensive Gigabit Ethernet applications and can handle voice, data, audio/video, and PoE signals. The snagless boot design ensures easy insertion and removal in high-density network environments.
What is the length and color of this cable?
This specific model (C6PC70-GN-03) is 3 feet in length and comes in green color. The green color can help in cable management and identification in complex network setups. The cable features a PVC jacket material that provides durability while maintaining flexibility for easy installation.
