UN UTP Cat6e Patch Cable 1.5 m Red

UN UTP Cat6e Patch Cable 1.5 m Red is a short unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connections between routers, switches, PCs and other network devices. At 1.5 metres length and finished in red jacketing, the cable is intended for patching in home, office and rack environments where a compact, visible link is required. The Cat6e specification supports typical Gigabit Ethernet performance over short runs while offering improved pairing and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables.

Advantages

The cable combines the flexibility and ease of installation of UTP construction with Cat6e-level pairing to provide stable data transmission for common Ethernet uses. Its short 1.5 m length reduces excess cable clutter and helps maintain tidy patching in network cabinets and desktop setups. The red colour improves visual identification of specific circuits or critical segments in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting a router, switch, or modem to a nearby PC or network device
• Patch panels and rack patching where short links are needed
• Home and small office LAN connections and temporary setups

Key specifications

• Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Category: Cat6e
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends (8P8C)
• Colour: Red jacket
• Typical use: Ethernet / network patching, Gigabit-capable on short runs

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connector into the network port of each device until the latch clicks. Ensure both connected devices are powered and that port LEDs indicate link activity. Position the cable to avoid sharp bends and compression points; for rack use, route the cable alongside other patch leads to maintain organisation. For testing, verify link speed and connectivity in the operating system or switch management interface.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to mains power lines or near strong sources of electromagnetic interference. Use the red colour to mark critical links or a specific network segment, and replace the cable if connectors become loose or the jacket shows signs of damage.
