Patch cable Cat6 UTP 1 m, LYNX, blue

LYNX Cat6 UTP patch cable, 1 m, blue is a single‑pair Ethernet jumper designed for Category 6 networks. It provides unshielded twisted pair connectivity with RJ45 terminations and is intended for short interconnects between patch panels, switches and workstations in LANs, data centers and office environments where Gigabit performance is needed.

Advantages

The cable supports Category 6 performance for reliable Gigabit Ethernet transmission over short distances and uses standard RJ45 connectors for broad compatibility with network equipment. Its UTP construction offers a compact, flexible solution for tidy patching and quick installations in racks and desktop setups.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between patch panels and switches
• Connecting desktops, servers and network equipment in offices
• Data center patching within racks and horizontal cabling runs

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded cable is not intended for environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cables would be preferable. It is also designed for short interconnects; for long permanent horizontal runs or buried installations, structured cabling with appropriate specifications should be used.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Shielding: UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 1 m
• Connector type: RJ45 at both ends
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding ports on switches, patch panels or devices until they click. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strain; use cable management in racks or under desks to keep connections secure and organized. Test the link with network testing tools if required to verify Gigabit connectivity.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required cable length and whether a 1 m patch cable suits your rack or desktop layout
• Decide if unshielded (UTP) is adequate for your environment or if shielded cabling is necessary
• Ensure Category 6 performance meets your network speed and future upgrade plans

Usage recommendations

Use this LYNX Cat6 UTP 1 m patch cable for short, in-rack and desktop Gigabit connections; avoid running it alongside significant power cabling or in high-interference areas without additional shielding.
