Patch cord DATACOM 15893 UTP CAT6 0.25m blue

The DATACOM Patch cord UTP CAT6 0.25m blue is a short, shield-free network cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in compact installations. Built to CAT6 specifications, this 0.25 meter patch cord provides consistent performance for gigabit networks, while the blue jacket helps with visual cable management and quick identification in patch panels and network racks. Its flexible design and compact length minimize clutter and signal degradation in short-distance links between switches, patch panels and nearby devices.

Advantages

This CAT6 UTP patch cord delivers stable high-speed data transmission with low crosstalk and impedance matched construction for predictable signal quality. The 0.25 m length reduces excess cable in dense equipment racks and workstations, improving airflow and organization. The blue outer sheath simplifies color-coded cabling schemes and the molded connectors ensure secure RJ45 termination and repeated insertion durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to patch panels in data cabinets where short links are needed
• Linking network devices in crowded server racks and telecom closets
• Desktop or workstation connections to nearby wall jacks or network outlets

Key specifications

• Category: UTP Category 6 (CAT6)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor type: twisted pair, copper
• Connectors: RJ45 modular plugs, molded strain relief
• Performance: supports Gigabit Ethernet and frequencies up to 250 MHz
• Jacket color: blue

How to use

Route the patch cord between the two network ports to be connected, avoiding sharp bends and excessive twisting. Insert each RJ45 plug fully into the corresponding jack until it clicks into place. For applications in patch panels or dense racks, use the short length to maintain tidy cable runs and prevent cable loops. If repositioning equipment, remove the cord by depressing the plug latch and pulling straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Usage recommendations

Use this short CAT6 patch cord for connections under 0.5 m to reduce signal reflections and improve rack organization. Avoid running the cable parallel and in close proximity to high-voltage power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cord if the jacket or plug shows signs of wear.
