Upgrade your network and enjoy clean and clear transmissions with the Belkin snagless Ethernet patch cable. This patch cable lets you connect a laptop or desktop computer to a wall outlet, modem, router or another networking device. The patch cable features an RJ-45 male connector on each end. Internal load bars ensure accurate plug positioning and consistent high performance, while the gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and wear and deliver a clean, clear signal. The snagless RJ-45 patch cable features 4 unshielded twisted pair stranded copper wires to reduce electromagnetic interference. Stranded cables are more pliable than solid cables, making them better suited for travel. Plus, the wires are housed in a durable PVC outer jacket for abrasion and corrosion resistance. This Ethernet cable provides a molded strain relief with ridges at each end that provides flexibility, reduces stress and allows the cable to move without cracking or breaking away from the plug for greater durability. Plus, the snagless moldings protect each RJ-45 plug, preventing damage during installation.
