Black Box 2ft CAT6 250MHz Shielded Ethernet Patch Cable (Yellow)

Overview

The Black Box EVNSL0272YL-0002 is a shielded CAT6 Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable gigabit network connections in environments prone to electromagnetic interference. Measuring two feet in length, it supports frequencies up to 250 MHz and is built to handle 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet standards. Its yellow jacket makes it easy to identify among other cables, making it a practical choice for organized setups in data centers, offices, and industrial spaces.

Key features

• Shielding on each twisted pair plus an overall tinned copper braid reduces electromagnetic and radio-frequency noise for cleaner data transmission.
• RJ-45 connectors with 50 micron gold-plated contacts maintain low resistance and resist corrosion, ensuring consistent signal quality.
• Molded boots protect the connector latches and support up to 750 plug-and-unplug cycles without signal degradation.
• Compact two-foot length is ideal for short connections between switches, patch panels, desktops, and wall plates, minimizing cable clutter.
• Bright yellow jacket simplifies cable management and identification in crowded racks or workbenches.
• Designed to perform well in electrically noisy environments such as broadcast suites, industrial plants, and labs with fluorescent lighting or motors.
