TB Print patch cord Cat6A RJ45 UTP 1m black

TB Print patch cord Cat6A RJ45 UTP 1m black is an unshielded Ethernet patch cable designed to provide Category 6A performance for short links. With a 1 meter length and standard RJ45 connectors, this cable is intended for connecting switches, patch panels, routers and single devices in office racks, data centers and network closets where a compact, reliable connection is required.

Advantages

The cable supports Category 6A transmission characteristics for higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower category cables, while the UTP design keeps the cable flexible and easy to route in confined spaces. RJ45 connectors provide universal compatibility with standard Ethernet ports, and the short 1 m length minimizes excess cable clutter and signal attenuation for point-to-point connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to patch panels in racks and cabinets
• Linking routers, access points or network appliances to nearby ports
• Temporary or permanent workstation connections in offices
• Data center top-of-rack short connections and equipment interlinks

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded UTP patch cord is not designed for environments with significant electromagnetic interference where shielded cables (FTP/STP) would be more appropriate. It is also not intended for long horizontal runs; the 1 m length is suitable only for short point-to-point connections.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A performance
• Conductor type: unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Length: 1 meter
• Color: black
• Typical use: Ethernet data networking

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use the 1 m cable to connect devices that are close to each other, such as switch-to-patch-panel or switch-to-router links. Route the cable along cable management channels or tie points to keep rack and desk areas tidy and to prevent strain on the connectors.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that Cat6A performance matches network requirements and is compatible with existing infrastructure.
• Confirm that a 1 m length is sufficient for the intended connection to avoid needing additional patch cords.
• Consider whether an unshielded cable is acceptable for your environment or if shielded cabling is required.
• Check connector orientation and port accessibility in racks or devices to ensure the cable will fit without obstruction.

Usage recommendations

For best results use this Cat6A UTP patch cord for short point-to-point connections within racks and network closets. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and secure it with cable management accessories to maintain signal integrity and prolong connector life.
