Patch Cable UTP Cat 6 (Class E) Triton, blue, 1 m

Triton UTP Cat 6 (Class E) patch cable, 1 m, blue is a short Ethernet cable engineered for reliable local network connections at Cat 6/Class E performance levels. It connects switches, patch panels, routers and other network devices where a compact, flexible 1-m link is required. The cable uses unshielded twisted pairs (UTP) and a standardized RJ45 termination to provide consistent signal transmission for typical office, server cabinet and residential network setups.

Advantages

This Cat 6 patch cable delivers improved bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables while maintaining the flexibility and ease of routing associated with UTP design. The 1 m length reduces excess cable clutter in patch bays and behind equipment, simplifying cable management. A colour-coded blue jacket enables quick visual identification of network segments and simplifies maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches and patch panels in racks and cabinets
• Linking routers, modems or desktop network ports to nearby devices
• Office workstations and home network setups requiring a 1 m Ethernet lead
• Temporary testing and troubleshooting of Ethernet ports and equipment

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 6 (Class E) — suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and compatible applications
• Cable type: UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Length: 1 metre
• Jacket colour: blue
• Typical use: patching in racks, desktops and short point-to-point links

How to use

Insert the RJ45 plug into the corresponding Ethernet port on each device until the latch clicks. Ensure connectors are fully seated in switch, router or patch panel ports. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce strain on the connectors; maintain a bend radius appropriate for Ethernet cables and avoid running the cable parallel to high-power electrical lines to minimise interference. For rack installations, use cable management panels or ties to keep the 1 m lead tidy and accessible.

Usage recommendations

For consistent performance, use this Cat 6 patch cable for connections within the specified length and network design. Replace cables that show visible damage to the jacket or connectors. When combining multiple links or extending runs, verify end-to-end category compliance to preserve Gigabit Ethernet performance.
