Network cable DS-IT DC-62-001 CAT6 U/UTP 0.15 m White 100% Copper

DS-IT DC-62-001 CAT6 U/UTP network cable is a short 0.15 m patch lead with 100% copper conductors and RJ45 connectors, finished in white. Designed for Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed LAN links, this compact cable is intended for short patching runs between switches, routers, patch panels and workstation ports where minimal length reduces excess cable and signal reflections. The U/UTP (unshielded) construction meets Category 6 performance expectations for local area network connections within structured cabling environments.

Advantages

The cable uses solid 100% copper conductors to ensure low resistance and stable transmission for Gigabit Ethernet. Its Category 6 specification supports higher bandwidth and improved NEXT performance compared with lower categories. The very short 0.15 m length helps keep server cabinets, racks and desktop areas tidy by avoiding cable loops, and the white jacket provides a discreet, professional appearance in office environments.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switch ports and nearby patch panels or routers
• Connections in server racks and network cabinets where minimal slack is required
• Desk-side connections between wall outlets and workstations
• Testing or temporary setups that require a very short Ethernet lead

When it may not be suitable

This 0.15 m cable is not intended for runs that require flexibility in placement or where devices are separated by larger distances; it will not reach between racks or across rooms. Because it is U/UTP (unshielded), it may be less suitable in environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling would provide better protection.

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Conductor material: 100% copper
• Length: 0.15 m
• Color: White
• Connector type: RJ45 terminated
• Intended use: Gigabit Ethernet / high-speed LAN

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the source device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other end into the destination port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Use this cable for direct short links where minimal slack is desired; avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and keep it clear of sources of heat or crushing. For rack installations, route the cable alongside other patch leads to maintain a tidy layout.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length: 0.15 m is suitable only for very short connections
• Environmental interference: U/UTP offers no additional shielding
• Cable category compatibility with existing network equipment (CAT6 recommended for Gigabit)
• Color preference for visual management in racks or offices

Usage recommendations

Use this DS-IT CAT6 0.15 m patch cable for tidy, short links inside racks, between adjacent ports on switches and patch panels, or desk-side connections where cable length must be minimal. For longer runs or installations in electrically noisy environments, select longer or shielded variants as appropriate.
