Network patch cable Telegärtner 100008077 RJ45 1.0 m blue flame-retardant with strain relief

Telegärtner 1.0 m RJ45 network patch cable in blue is a Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) patch cord designed for short interconnects in LAN environments. The cable provides a straight-through RJ45 connection at both ends and includes a strain-relief boot to reduce bending stress at the connector. The jacket is flame-retardant, suitable for indoor installations where improved safety properties are required.

Advantages

This Cat6A U/UTP patch cable supports high-speed Ethernet links over short distances while maintaining signal integrity through standard RJ45 terminations. The integrated strain-relief boot protects the connector and cable entry from sharp bends and mechanical wear, extending service life in patch panel and switch environments. The flame-retardant jacket enhances safety in office and data-centre installations by reducing flame propagation in case of fire.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, routers and patch panels in racks and cabinets
• Connecting workstations, VoIP phones and networked peripherals to wall outlets or switches
• Short horizontal or equipment-to-equipment links where Cat6A performance is required

When it may not be suitable

This 1.0 m Cat6A U/UTP cable is not intended for long-distance backbone runs or outdoor installations; it is optimized for short indoor interconnects. It does not provide additional shielding, so in environments with strong electromagnetic interference or where shielded cabling is required, a shielded cable type should be chosen instead.

Key specifications

• Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair), Cat6A
• Length: 1.0 m
• Connectors: RJ45 straight male – both ends
• Colour: Blue
• Jacket property: flame-retardant
• Strain relief: boot at connector to reduce bending stress

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of a switch, router or patch panel and the other connector into the device or outlet to be connected. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without tight bends and avoid sharp edges; use the strain-relief boot to guide the cable near the connector and reduce mechanical stress. For rack-mounted equipment, keep cable length appropriate to avoid excess slack and maintain proper airflow and cable management.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length for your installation; 1.0 m suits short interconnects
• Whether unshielded Cat6A meets your EMI and performance requirements
• Colour coding needs for your cabling scheme (blue)
• Indoor use only; verify if flame-retardant jacket meets local safety standards

Usage recommendations

Use this blue 1.0 m Cat6A U/UTP patch cable for short, high-speed connections between rack equipment, switches and workstations. Keep bend radius reasonable, avoid kinking, and use proper cable management in patch panels to maintain performance and prolong connector life.
