Secomp Cat.6 (Class E) UTP patch cable in blue, 1 m length, is designed for Ethernet networking and structured cabling. The cable supports Cat6 performance for fast LAN connections and is suitable for linking switches, routers, patch panels and endpoints in home, office or data cabinet environments. Its unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design provides standard electrical characteristics for typical Ethernet applications.
Advantages
This Secomp patch cable provides reliable Cat.6 performance in a compact 1 m form factor, useful for short connections in patch panels and rack-mounted equipment. The UTP construction keeps the cable flexible and easy to route in tight spaces, while the standardized RJ45 terminations ensure compatibility with common Ethernet ports. The blue jacket helps with visual identification and cable management in mixed-cable installations.
Suitable for
- Short Ethernet links between switches, routers and patch panels
- Connecting endpoints such as PCs, printers and networked devices to LAN ports
- Patch cabling inside server racks and network cabinets
- Home and small office networking where Cat6 performance is required
When it may not be suitable
This unshielded Cat.6 cable is not designed for environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cables would be required. For longer runs beyond typical patch lengths, such as horizontal cabling exceeding recommended distances for Cat6, a longer cable or structured cabling solution should be used. It is also not intended for outdoor exposure or direct burial without additional protective measures.
Key specifications
- Category: Cat.6 (Class E)
- Conductor type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
- Length: 1 m
- Connector: RJ45 terminated on both ends
- Color: Blue
- Typical use: Ethernet / LAN patching
How to use
Plug the RJ45 connector into the network ports of the devices you want to connect, such as a switch, router, patch panel or endpoint. Ensure connectors are fully seated to establish a secure link. Use the 1 m length for short links within racks or between nearby devices to reduce excess cable slack. For neat installations, route the cable along cable managers or tie points and avoid tight bends that could stress the connectors or conductors.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that Cat.6 (Class E) performance meets your network speed and bandwidth requirements.
- Confirm 1 m length is sufficient for your planned connection without causing strain or requiring extensions.
- Consider whether UTP is appropriate for the installation environment or if a shielded cable is needed.
- Check color coding needs for your cable management scheme.
Usage recommendations
Use this Secomp Cat.6 UTP patch cable for short, internal Ethernet connections where Cat6 performance is required. Avoid high-interference areas and protect connections from moisture and mechanical strain to maintain reliable network links.
