Black Box EVNSL83-0020

Overview

The Black Box EVNSL83-0020 is a 20-foot Category 5e Ethernet patch cable designed to maintain reliable and high-speed network connections in environments where performance is critical. It supports bandwidth up to 350 MHz, which provides extra capacity beyond the standard CAT5e specification, ensuring smooth data transfers for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit networks. The cable’s bright red jacket makes it easy to identify in crowded racks or wiring closets, simplifying cable management and troubleshooting.

Built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors, this cable balances flexibility with signal integrity, making it suitable for frequent moves and changes. The RJ45 connectors feature 50 micron gold-plated contacts to maintain low resistance and clean connections over time. A snagless boot protects the connector latch during installation, reducing the risk of damage and extending the cable’s service life.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
