Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP6-025B UTP Cat6 0.25m Blue

The C-TECH CB-PP6-025B UTP Cat6 patch cord is a 0.25 m blue network cable designed for short-distance connections in constrained spaces. Constructed to Cat6 specifications, this UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cable supports reliable data transmission for Ethernet networks, offering a compact solution for connecting switches, patch panels, routers and end devices where full-length cables are impractical.

Advantages

This Cat6 patch cord delivers gigabit-capable performance in a short form factor, reducing cable clutter and improving organization in dense cabling environments. The unshielded twisted pair design minimizes crosstalk between pairs while maintaining compatibility with standard RJ45 ports. Its 0.25 m length and flexible jacket make it suitable for tight rack spaces and close-proximity device connections, and the durable blue outer sheath provides visual identification and mechanical protection.

Suitable for

• Connecting patch panels to switches in server racks or wall-mounted cabinets
• Short links between network devices in desktop or office setups
• Linking network ports on routers, switches, NAS units and PCs in compact installations
• Temporary test connections and lab environments where short cables reduce clutter

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 (compliant with Cat6 performance for up to 250 MHz)
• Configuration: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Length: 0.25 meters
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends (8P8C)
• Color: Blue
• Typical use: Ethernet LAN connections up to gigabit speeds
• Jacket: Flexible PVC or similar thermoplastic outer sheath for indoor use

How to use

Insert the RJ45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices until they click into place. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and kinks in the cable and ensure connectors are fully seated. Use the 0.25 m length to maintain tidy connections in racks, behind equipment or within wall-mounted enclosures. When disconnecting, press the plug latch and pull the connector straight out to prevent damage to the plug or port.

Usage recommendations

Use this short Cat6 UTP patch cord for intra-rack or close-proximity connections where full-length cables are unnecessary. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and power cables to reduce the risk of interference. For outdoor runs, shielded cabling or specially rated outdoor cables are recommended instead of indoor UTP cords.
