ROLINE Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable, Class E, PoE, 1.5 m, Orange

The ROLINE Cat.6 UTP patch cable is a high-performance networking solution engineered for stable and fast data transmission in modern Ethernet environments. Measuring 1.5 meters in length, this unshielded twisted pair cable is designed to meet Class E standards, ensuring reliable connectivity for your local network infrastructure. Its vibrant orange color allows for easy identification in complex cable management setups, while its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) makes it a versatile choice for powering network devices directly through the data connection.

Advantages

This patch cable offers a robust construction that minimizes signal interference and maintains data integrity during high-speed transfers. By adhering to Cat.6 specifications, it provides sufficient bandwidth for demanding network applications, including streaming, gaming, and professional office tasks. The inclusion of PoE support adds significant value, as it allows for the deployment of devices like IP cameras or VoIP phones without the need for separate power supplies. Its compact 1.5-meter length is perfectly suited for short-range connections between patch panels, switches, and workstations, helping to reduce cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to wall outlets or network switches
• Linking routers and modems in home or office setups
• Powering PoE-enabled devices such as IP phones and security cameras
• Organizing network racks where color-coding is required

This cable is not suitable for environments requiring high levels of electromagnetic interference protection, as it is an unshielded (UTP) cable. It should not be used in industrial settings with heavy machinery or high-voltage cabling where shielded (STP/FTP) cables are mandatory to prevent signal degradation.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6
• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Performance class: Class E
• Length: 1.5 meters
• Color: Orange
• PoE support: Yes

To use this cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your network device until you hear a click. Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles or stretched beyond its capacity to maintain optimal signal quality. For best results, keep the cable away from power lines to prevent potential interference.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific setup
• Check if your network equipment supports Cat.6 standards
• Confirm if your devices require PoE functionality
• Ensure the unshielded design meets your environmental requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid running patch cables alongside electrical power cords and ensure that the connectors are kept clean and free from dust or debris.
