Network patch cable LANBERG Cat6 U/UTP, RJ-45–RJ-45, 0.25 m, yellow

LANBERG Cat6 U/UTP patch cable, 0.25 m, with RJ-45 connectors on both ends in yellow. This short patch cord is designed for Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling environments where brief connections are required, such as between patch panels, switches and devices within rack or workstation setups. The unshielded U/UTP design and Category 6 performance support data transfer up to 250 MHz, while the yellow jacket improves visibility for cable identification and management.

Advantages

The cable uses stranded AWG 26 conductors (8 x 7 x 0.16 mm) with HDPE conductor insulation, providing flexibility for frequent routing and re-patching in confined spaces. PVC outer insulation with a 5.4 mm diameter ensures mechanical protection while maintaining compact size. The product is manufactured to meet ANSI/TIA/EIA-568B compatibility for structured cabling and comes with a printed length counter on longer runs; the short 0.25 m length reduces clutter and signal reflections in patching scenarios.

Suitable for

• Short links between patch panels and switches in server racks
• Connections between network devices on a workstation or in a cabinet
• Color-coded cable management and quick identification of circuits

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until it clicks to establish a secure physical connection. Use the 0.25 m LANBERG Cat6 patch cable for short-distance patching inside racks, between adjacent devices on a desk, or when replacing an existing short link. Ensure ports on both devices are powered down if required by your installation procedure, then power up and verify link/activity LEDs or run a basic network test to confirm connectivity and speed negotiation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress on the cable and connectors. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources if possible, and use color-coded patch cords like this yellow cable to simplify tracing and maintenance in dense cabling setups.
