Networking cable Alantec KKU6NIE3 Cat6 U/UTP, RJ-45–RJ-45, 3 m, blue

Alantec KKU6NIE3 is a 3 m Cat6 U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable Gigabit Ethernet and local area network connections. The unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction provides Cat6 performance suitable for typical home and office setups. The blue cable is intended for patching, router-to-switch links and direct device connections, offering a compact and flexible option for network routing between distribution points and subscriber endpoints.

Advantages

The cable supports Cat6 specifications for consistent data transmission up to Gigabit speeds without additional shielding, which keeps it lightweight and easy to route. Pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors at both ends ensure quick installation and compatibility with standard network ports. Its 3 m length balances reach and cable management, making it suitable for desk-to-switch and equipment-to-router connections. The blue jacket provides easy visual identification within structured cabling setups.

Suitable for

• Patching connections in distribution frames and patch panels
• Connecting routers to switches or hubs
• Linking desktop computers, VoIP phones, printers and other networked devices
• Temporary or permanent subscriber connections in small offices and homes

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 (unshielded, U/UTP)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Blue
• Intended use: Ethernet patching, device interconnection

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of the source device (router, switch or modem) and the other RJ-45 plug to the destination device (computer, printer or networked peripheral). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a reliable mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, high-tension stretches and sources of electromagnetic interference. For structured cabling, use appropriate cable management accessories such as cable ties and patch panels to maintain neat runs and avoid strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for indoor networking runs up to 3 m where Cat6 performance is required. Avoid exposure to outdoor elements or environments with strong electromagnetic interference; choose shielded or specially rated cables if protection or outdoor durability is needed. Maintain bend radius consistent with standard Ethernet cabling practice and replace the cable if connector damage or degraded performance is observed.
