Patch cord ElectroBase K8100.3 3m CAT6 UTP

The ElectroBase K8100.3 3m CAT6 UTP patch cord is a network cable designed for high-speed data transmission between networking devices. Constructed to CAT6 standard without shielding (UTP), the cable supports reliable connectivity for home and office environments where stable wired connections are required. At three meters in length, it provides flexibility for connecting switches, routers, patch panels, and wall sockets while minimizing clutter and maintaining signal integrity.

Advantages

This CAT6 UTP patch cord delivers consistent performance for gigabit Ethernet and other high-bandwidth network applications. Its unshielded twisted-pair design reduces crosstalk through precise pair twisting and controlled impedance, helping to maintain low signal loss over the cable length. The 3 m length balances reach and manageability in typical desk-to-switch or rack-to-patch panel connections. Durable connectors and jacket material offer mechanical reliability for repeated insertion and typical office handling.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, printers and network devices to switches or routers
• Patch panel to switch links in small server racks or network cabinets
• Home network setups requiring wired gigabit performance
• Temporary or permanent office wiring where a 3 m reach is appropriate

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6 (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Length: 3 meters
• Connector type: 8P8C (RJ45) connectors
• Typical supported speeds: up to gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and suitable for higher-frequency CAT6 applications
• Jacket: flexible PVC or equivalent material suitable for indoor use
• Impedance: nominal 100 Ω

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network device or wall socket and the other into the switch, router, or patch panel port. Ensure connectors fully seat with a click and avoid tight bends or kinks that can degrade performance. Route the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large motors or fluorescent ballast where possible. For neat installation, secure the cable with cable ties or management clips without compressing the cable jacket excessively.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the link after installation using network diagnostic tools or cable testers to confirm continuity and performance. Use this CAT6 UTP patch cord for indoor structured cabling within the specified length; for runs longer than 3 meters in structured networks, consider evaluating overall channel length and using appropriate patching strategy to maintain CAT6 performance.
