Patch Cable UTP Cat.6 (Class E) Secomp S1743, green, 3 m

Secomp S1743 is a Category 6 (Class E) UTP patch cable with a 3 meter length and a green jacket, intended for Ethernet connections in structured cabling environments. The cable is unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and built to meet Cat6 performance requirements, providing suitable bandwidth and signal integrity for Gigabit Ethernet and typical LAN applications. It is compatible with standard RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels and network devices used in office, home and small data center environments.

Advantages

The Secomp S1743 offers consistent Cat6-level transmission over its 3 m length while remaining flexible enough for routing in racks, under desks or through cable management channels. The green outer jacket provides clear visual identification in multi-cable installations and helps maintain organised cabling. Being an unshielded cable, it is easier to terminate and route in environments where excessive electromagnetic interference is not expected.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches and end devices
• Patch panels and horizontal patching in office or home networks
• Connecting routers, network printers and NAS devices within 3 m distance
• Server room or data closet short-run cabling and device interconnects

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded Cat6 patch cable may not be suitable in environments with high electromagnetic interference (EMI) or where shielded cabling is required for compliance with local cabling standards. For runs longer than typical patch lengths or for future higher-frequency requirements (for example 10 Gigabit over longer distances), a higher category cable or different wiring topology may be needed.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 6 (Class E)
• Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Length: 3 metres
• Connector type: RJ45 compatible
• Jacket colour: Green
• Intended use: Ethernet / LAN patching

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors into the appropriate ports on your network devices such as switches, routers or patch panels until they click into place. Route the 3 m cable along cable management paths, avoiding sharp bends and tension that could damage the pair integrity. For best signal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electrical interference and avoid tightly bundling it with power cabling.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that Category 6 performance and a 3 m length meet your current and near-future network requirements
• Consider whether an unshielded cable is acceptable for your environment or if shielded cable (STP/FTP) is necessary
• Confirm the green jacket colour fits your cabling colour-coding or identification scheme

Usage recommendations

Use this Secomp Cat6 UTP patch cable for short interconnects within racks, between patch panels and switches, and for workstation connections where Gigabit Ethernet is required and electromagnetic interference is limited.
