Black Box EVNSL0172BL-0006

Overview

The Black Box EVNSL0172BL-0006 is a six foot shielded Cat5e Ethernet patch cable designed to maintain reliable data transmission in environments with electrical interference. It supports network speeds up to 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX with a certified 100 MHz bandwidth, making it suitable for Gigabit desktop connections, VoIP phones, and Wi-Fi access points. The cable’s slim boot design ensures it fits neatly into crowded patch panels and switch racks without adding bulk.

Key features

• Shielded construction with Mylar tape and integrated drain wire blocks electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, preserving signal integrity.
• 50-micron gold-plated contacts on RJ-45 plugs provide consistent conductivity and resist corrosion, reducing connection issues.
• Slim boot design offers effective strain relief while minimizing cable bulk for better cable management in tight spaces.

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.
