ROLINE Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable, Class E, PoE, 3 m, Yellow

The ROLINE Cat.6 UTP patch cable is a high-performance networking solution engineered for stable and reliable data transmission in Ethernet environments. Measuring 3 meters in length and finished in a vibrant yellow color, this cable is designed to meet Class E standards, ensuring high-speed connectivity for various office and home network devices. Its unshielded twisted pair construction is optimized for standard installations where electromagnetic interference is within normal operating parameters.

Advantages

This cable offers robust performance for modern network requirements by supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which allows for the simultaneous transmission of data and electrical power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. The high-quality materials used in its construction ensure a consistent signal flow, minimizing data loss and maintaining network integrity. Its 3-meter length provides sufficient flexibility for connecting devices within a workstation or server rack without creating excessive cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to network switches or routers
• Powering PoE-enabled devices like IP cameras and VoIP phones
• Home office and professional network installations
• Patch panels and wall outlets

When it may not be suitable

This cable is an unshielded (UTP) model and may not be suitable for environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference, such as areas with heavy industrial machinery or significant power cabling. In such scenarios, shielded cables would be required to prevent signal degradation.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6
• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Performance class: Class E
• Length: 3 meters
• Color: Yellow
• PoE support: Yes

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device until you hear a distinct click. Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles or stretched beyond its physical limits to maintain optimal performance. When connecting PoE devices, verify that your network switch or injector provides the necessary power output to support the connected hardware.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required cable length for your specific setup
• Check if your network environment requires shielded (STP/FTP) or unshielded (UTP) cabling
• Confirm that your hardware supports Cat.6 standards for maximum speed

Usage recommendations

For the best network performance, avoid running Ethernet cables parallel to power lines for long distances and ensure that connectors are kept clean and free of dust.
