Patch cord DATACOM UTP CAT6 0.25m gray

The DATACOM Patch cord UTP CAT6 0.25m gray is a short, flexible network cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in confined or densely packed installations. Compliant with CAT6 performance parameters, this 0.25 m unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord supports high-speed data transfer between network devices where a minimal cable length is required. The gray jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for home, office or equipment rack environments.

Advantages

This patch cord delivers consistent signal integrity and reduced crosstalk characteristic of CAT6 cabling while keeping installation neat in limited spaces. Its compact 0.25 m length prevents excess cable clutter and helps maintain airflow around network equipment. The UTP construction and standardized RJ45 connectors ensure compatibility with common network ports and easy plug-and-play setup.

Suitable for

• Short interconnections between switches, patch panels and servers in racks
• Linking network devices on crowded desks and workstations
• Connecting wall outlets to nearby network equipment
• Temporary test connections in labs and service environments

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6 (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45
• Color: Gray
• Conductor: Stranded copper for flexibility
• Typical application: Ethernet networks up to gigabit speeds

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use the 0.25 m DATACOM UTP CAT6 patch cord where minimal distance is required between devices to avoid excess cabling. For best results, connect like-rated ports (e.g., gigabit Ethernet) and verify link status on connected devices. When routing inside racks or enclosures, avoid sharp bends that could stress the cable or connectors.

Usage recommendations

For stable performance, avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radii recommended for CAT6 cables. Use this short patch cord for close-proximity connections; if longer runs are needed, select an appropriate length CAT6 cable to preserve signal quality.
