Belkin CAT6 Slim Gigabit Snagless Ethernet Cable 1ft (Red)

Overview

The Belkin CE001B01-RED-S is a Category 6 Ethernet cable designed to deliver gigabit-speed data transfer in a compact and manageable form. Measuring just one foot in length, it minimizes excess cable slack, making it ideal for tight spaces such as behind monitors, inside racks, or under desks. Its slim profile and red jacket help maintain airflow and make cable identification easier in crowded setups.

Constructed with 28 AWG stranded copper twisted pairs and gold-plated RJ45 connectors, this cable ensures reliable signal integrity and resistance to corrosion. It supports both 100BASE-T and 1000BASE-T networks, making it suitable for fast file transfers, video streaming, and VoIP calls.

Key features

• Category 6 cable supports network speeds up to 1 Gbps for smooth data transmission.
• Slim design reduces cable bulk, improving airflow and simplifying cable management in dense environments.
• One-foot length prevents clutter and makes patch panel work more efficient.
• Snagless boot protects the connector latch from catching on other cables during moves or adjustments.
• 28 AWG stranded copper conductors reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference for clearer signals.
• RJ45 connectors with 50 micron gold plating maintain a stable connection and resist corrosion over time.
• Durable PVC jacket combined with molded strain relief protects against bending and everyday wear.
