Black Box 6ft GigaTrue 3 CAT6 550-MHz Locking Ethernet Cable (Yellow)

The Black Box C6PC70-YL-06 is a six-foot CAT6 patch cable that delivers dependable gigabit performance for workstations, switches, and other networked devices. Tested to 550 MHz—more than double the CAT6 specification—it keeps data, voice, and video flowing smoothly whether you are moving large files across a server, powering a VoIP phone, or streaming content to a digital display.

Each end features the patented LockPORT boot that lets you choose between two levels of protection: insert a simple locking pin to guard against accidental unplugging, or use a secure key-lock to prevent any disconnection without a matching release tool. This design is especially helpful in classrooms, hospital rooms, public kiosks, and shared network racks where ports need an extra measure of security.

A 24 AWG stranded conductor core maintains flexibility for tight bends inside cabinets while preserving signal integrity. The contacts are plated with 50 microns of gold, a thickness that resists corrosion and ensures a clear, low-loss connection through up to 750 insertion or extraction cycles. From 10BASE-T to 1000BASE-T, and for Power over Ethernet devices that draw power through the same run, the cable handles it all without dropouts.

The bright yellow jacket makes individual links easy to trace, and full RoHS, CE, and UL/cUL approvals mean it is ready for use in regulated environments where compliance documentation matters.
