Network Cable MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6 1M Red Slim

The MicroConnect U/UTP CAT6 1M Red Slim network cable is designed for reliable high-speed data transmission between network devices. Its slim jacket and 1 metre length make it suitable for neat cable management and routing in constrained spaces behind desks, in media cabinets or within patch panels. The cable supports data rates up to 1 Gbps over standard Ethernet connections and is intended for use in typical home and office network environments where a compact, visible cable is preferred.

Advantages

The slim outer diameter reduces congestion in cable bundles and simplifies installation in narrow channels and conduits while maintaining the performance characteristics of CAT6 U/UTP cabling. The red colour improves visual identification for network runs and fault finding. Built with durable materials and factory-terminated connectors, the cable provides consistent electrical contact and extended service life under normal indoor conditions.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, laptops and workstations to switches or routers
• Patching between wall outlets and patch panels in small office or home networks
• Temporary or permanent runs where visible colour coding is useful
• Routing through tight spaces such as behind entertainment units or inside cabinets

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices until the connector latches. Use the 1-metre length to make short connections between network equipment, patch panels and wall sockets. Route the cable along existing cable runs or through cable management channels, taking care to avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force. For optimal performance, keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Usage recommendations

For best results in a home or office network, verify port speeds and network switch configuration to ensure gigabit links are negotiated. When installing multiple cables, use colour coding to simplify identification and document connections to facilitate maintenance.
