Patch cable UTP Category 6 (Class E), yellow, 1 m by Secomp

Secomp UTP Category 6 (Class E) patch cable, 1 m in yellow, is an unshielded twisted-pair cable designed for short interconnects in Ethernet networks. Built to deliver Category 6 performance, this cable supports typical LAN wiring needs and reliable connections between network devices, switches and patch panels in offices, data centres and home networks where a one-metre link is required.

Advantages

The cable offers Category 6 electrical characteristics for improved signal integrity and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables. Its unshielded design provides flexibility and ease of routing in patch panels and cabinets. The bright yellow jacket enhances visibility for cable management and identification. A one-metre length minimises excess slack and helps maintain tidy, efficient cable layouts.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches and patch panels
• Server-to-switch links in rack-mounted installations
• Desktop Ethernet connections for PCs, workstations and VoIP phones
• Office and data centre horizontal cabling where Cat6 performance is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 6 (Class E) UTP
• Conductor type: twisted-pair copper conductors, unshielded
• Length: 1 metre
• Connector type: RJ45 terminated at both ends
• Colour: yellow jacket for easy identification
• Intended use: Ethernet and network patching at Cat6 performance levels

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug into the corresponding network ports on devices such as switches, patch panels, routers or network interfaces. Ensure plugs are fully seated and that strain is minimised on the connector ends to avoid damage. Use the one-metre length for close-proximity connections inside racks, between adjacent ports or for tidy desk setups. For consistent performance, avoid sharp bends, excessive pulling tension and prolonged exposure to heat or crushing.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Cat6 patch cable in combination with Category 6-compliant hardware (switches, patch panels and NICs) and maintain proper cable management practices to reduce interference and ensure predictable network performance.
