Patch cord DATACOM 15904 UTP Cat6 0.5m green

The DATACOM 15904 UTP Cat6 patch cord in green is a 0.5 m network cable designed for short links in structured cabling systems. Built to Cat6 performance parameters, this unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord provides consistent signal transmission for Ethernet applications where a compact, reliable connection is required. Its quarter-metre-length class makes it suitable for patch panels, switches, and wall outlets in both home and small office setups.

Advantages

This Cat6 patch cord delivers compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet speeds and maintains reduced crosstalk thanks to Category 6 wiring standards. The short 0.5 m length minimises excess cable clutter and preserves signal integrity in dense rack or desk arrangements. The green jacket offers quick visual identification of the cable run in multi-cable installations. The cord uses standard RJ45 terminations for plug-and-play connection with common networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to patch panels in server rooms or comms racks
• Short device-to-device links such as PC to wall outlet or switch
• Desk area cabling and small office/home office (SOHO) networks
• Environments where colour-coded cable management is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 (UTP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ45 plug on both ends
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper
• Colour: green
• Suitable for: Ethernet up to Gigabit speeds (per Cat6 performance)

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding ports of the network devices until they click to ensure secure contact. Use the patch cord for short-distance connections between patch panels, switches, routers, or network outlets. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and do not route the cable close to high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference. For best performance, keep the cable run within the specified length and avoid tight coils.

Usage recommendations

When organising multiple connections, label both ends of the green patch cord and route it using cable management panels or ties to maintain airflow and accessibility. Inspect connectors periodically for dust or damage and replace the cord if bent pins or degraded performance are observed.
