Patch cable Secomp Cat6 UTP (Class E) green 0.5 m S1740

Secomp Cat6 UTP (Class E) patch cable in green, 0.5 m (model S1740) is a short unshielded Ethernet connection lead designed for Cat6/Class E performance. It has standard RJ45 terminations and is intended for use where space is limited or a short fixed link between network devices is required. The cable supports typical Ethernet applications and is suitable for patching in offices, server cabinets, home networks and structured cabling systems that accept Cat6 UTP components.

Advantages

The Secomp Cat6 UTP patch cable offers reliable UTP Cat6 performance in a compact 0.5 m length, making it convenient for dense patch panels and short device-to-device connections. Its standard RJ45 connectors provide broad compatibility with switches, routers, patch panels and network interface ports. The green jacket helps with visual identification in multi-cable installations and the unshielded design simplifies grounding requirements in typical indoor environments.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers, servers and patch panels
• Dense cabling in server racks and data cabinets where short runs are needed
• Office and home network installations requiring Cat6/Class E performance
• Structured cabling endpoints and temporary test connections

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5 m UTP patch cable is not intended for long-distance runs; use a longer cable or permanent in-wall cabling for extended connections. Because it is unshielded (UTP), it may not be suitable in environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cables would provide better noise immunity.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 / Class E (UTP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45
• Conductor type: twisted pair, unshielded
• Color: green

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network device (switch, router, patch panel or NIC) and the other RJ45 end to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the small bend radius recommended for Ethernet patch cords to preserve signal integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a 0.5 m length suits your intended connection and rack layout
• Verify that UTP (unshielded) cabling is acceptable for your electromagnetic environment
• Ensure Cat6/Class E performance meets the throughput and frequency requirements of your network

Usage recommendations

Use the cable for short, reliable patching in racks and desktop setups; color-code with other green patch cords for easier cable management and replace if connectors or jacket show visible wear.
