The Mercodan Cat6 U/UTP Patch Cable, 5.0 meters, Green, Halogen-Free LSZH, AWG 24, Round Network Cable is a reliable network solution designed for stable data transmission in home and office environments. With a length of 5.0 meters, this green round network cable provides convenient reach between network devices such as computers, routers, switches, and patch panels. Built to Cat6 U/UTP specifications with CCA conductors and a 2x4xAWG24 wire gauge, it supports efficient everyday networking tasks. The inclusion of a halogen-free LSZH jacket enhances safety by reducing toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it suitable for modern indoor installations.
Advantages
This Mercodan network cable offers a practical balance of length, flexibility, and safety for standard indoor networking setups. The 5.0-meter reach allows flexible device placement without excessive cable slack, helping to keep workspaces organized. The halogen-free LSZH outer sheath provides an additional layer of safety compliance for indoor environments where low smoke and zero halogen materials are required. Its round cable profile facilitates neat cable routing along walls, through desks, or inside structured cabling channels. Designed with CCA conductors and standard Cat6 performance parameters, it delivers consistent connectivity for routine data transfer and internet access.
Suitable for
- Connecting desktop computers and laptops to local network routers or switches
- Linking network switches to patch panels in small office setups
- Extending wired internet connections across a room within a 5.0-meter radius
- General indoor LAN networking applications requiring a halogen-free cable jacket
When it may not be suitable
This cable may not be suitable for high-power Power over Ethernet applications or industrial environments that require solid copper wiring rather than CCA conductors. It is also not recommended for outdoor installations exposed to direct sunlight or moisture, as the LSZH jacket and standard construction are intended strictly for indoor use.
Key specifications
- Cat6 U/UTP network specification
- Length: 5.0 meters
- Color: Green
- Conductor material: CCA
- Wire gauge: 2x4xAWG24
- Cable shape: Round
- Jacket material: Halogen-free LSZH
How to use
To use the patch cable, insert one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device, such as a computer, smart TV, or console, and plug the opposite end into a compatible port on your router, switch, or wall outlet. Ensure the connectors click securely into place to maintain a stable connection. Route the round cable carefully around corners or along baseboards, avoiding sharp bends, heavy pinching, or excessive tension that could damage the internal conductors over time.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that a 5.0-meter length is sufficient for your specific routing distance between devices
- Check if your network setup requires CCA conductors or if solid copper is specified for your installation standards
- Confirm that an indoor halogen-free LSZH cable meets your building safety and environmental requirements
Usage recommendations: Avoid tightly coiling or knotting the cable during installation to preserve signal integrity. Keep the cable away from excessive heat sources and moisture, and ensure connectors are kept clean and free from dust.
