## Summary description

The Helos 262978 networking cable is a 1-meter long Cat6 U/UTP cable featuring RJ-45 connectors with gold plating for enhanced conductivity. Its vibrant red color adds a stylish touch to your setup while ensuring high-speed data transmission and reliable performance for your networking needs.

## Long description

The Helos 262978 networking cable is a 1 m Cat6 U/UTP patch cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts to improve conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The cable’s red jacket provides clear visual identification in patch panels, racks or desktop setups while supporting the transmission characteristics of Category 6 cabling for fast local network links.
Advantages
The Cat6 U/UTP construction offers consistent performance for typical Ethernet applications while keeping the cable flexible and easy to route. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs reduce contact resistance and improve long-term signal integrity. The 1 m length is convenient for short connections between devices, switches and patch panels, and the red colour helps with quick visual differentiation when managing multiple cables.
Suitable for
 Short connections between desktop PCs, laptops and network switches
 Patch panel to switch links in small racks or wall-mounted enclosures
 Home networks and small office wiring where color-coding is useful
 Temporary or permanent connections in network test setups
Key specifications
 Category: Cat6
 Topology: U/UTP (unshielded, overall unshielded)
 Length: 1 m
 Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
 Contacts: Gold-plated
 Colour: Red
How to use
Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of a network device and the other plug to the corresponding port on a switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 1 m length to avoid excess cable slack; if routing through cable management, avoid sharp bends and prevent strain on the connector ends.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use the cable within a standard Ethernet environment and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines. Inspect connectors for debris before insertion and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show physical damage. Use color-coded cables like this red unit to simplify identification in multi-cable installations.
