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

The ROLINE Cat.6 UTP patch cable is a professional-grade networking solution engineered for high-speed data transmission in Ethernet environments. Measuring 3 meters in length and finished in a vibrant orange color, this cable is designed to provide a reliable link between various network devices while maintaining signal integrity. It adheres to Class E standards, ensuring it meets the requirements for modern gigabit network infrastructures.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional performance for standard networking tasks, featuring an unshielded twisted pair design that balances flexibility and signal quality. The support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows for the simultaneous transmission of data and electrical power, simplifying the installation of devices like IP cameras or VoIP phones. Its robust construction ensures a secure connection, reducing the risk of data loss or intermittent connectivity issues in both home and office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to network wall outlets
• Linking switches, routers, and hubs
• Powering PoE-enabled devices such as access points and IP cameras
• Home office and small business network setups

When it may not be suitable

This cable is unshielded, which means it may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference in environments with high levels of electrical noise or near heavy industrial machinery. It is not intended for outdoor use or in areas where the cable will be exposed to harsh environmental conditions or direct sunlight.

Key specifications

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

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the network port of your device until you hear a distinct click. Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles or stretched tightly, as this can damage the internal wiring over time. When connecting PoE devices, verify that your network switch or injector provides the correct power output required by the end device.

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 orange color fits your cable management or color-coding scheme

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid running Ethernet cables parallel to power lines to minimize potential interference. Always ensure connectors are fully seated in their ports to maintain a stable connection.
