• Temporary or permanent workstation cabling where space is limited

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Shielding: UTP (no overall shielding)
• Colour: Black
• Intended speed: Supports Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) over typical short runs

How to use

Insert each RJ45 plug into the corresponding network ports on your devices until the connector latches. Ensure ports are powered and configured according to your network settings; the cable requires no drivers or special setup. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and do not run the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines to minimise potential interference. For installations in racks or behind furniture, use cable ties or clips to secure the cable and prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6 UTP cable for reliable short-distance Ethernet connections up to 2 m, keeping it away from strong electromagnetic sources and sharp edges to preserve signal integrity and connector life.
