Network Cable VALUE UTP Patch Cord Cat.6a RJ45 2m Grey

The VALUE UTP Patch Cord Cat.6a RJ45 2m Grey is a 2-metre network cable engineered for stable high-speed data transmission in structured cabling installations. It uses unshielded twisted pair construction (U/UTP) and RJ45 terminations to provide backward-compatible connectivity for devices that require Cat6a performance margins. The neutral grey jacket suits residential, office and data center patching where unobtrusive cabling is preferred.

Advantages

The cable offers Cat6a category performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short to moderate distances while maintaining compatibility with standard RJ45 ports. The U/UTP construction reduces near-end and far-end crosstalk through precise pair twisting and conductor geometry. A durable outer jacket protects conductors from mechanical wear and ensures stable electrical characteristics over time. The 2 m length provides flexibility for connecting wall outlets to network equipment or linking patch panels to switches without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops and VoIP phones to wall sockets or switches
• Patch panel to switch connections in office racks and small server rooms
• Home networking where short direct runs between router and device are needed
• Temporary setups for events or testing where reliable RJ45 connections are required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented)
• Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Connector type: RJ45 male to RJ45 male
• Length: 2 m
• Conductor: multi-strand copper (flexible for patching)
• Colour: Grey
• Suitable frequency band: up to 500 MHz

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector firmly into the device or network outlet until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and prevent kinking; keep it clear of high-power electrical appliances to reduce potential interference. For equipment in racks or closets, use cable management to maintain slack and avoid strain on the connectors. When disconnecting, depress the latch before pulling the connector to protect the plug and port.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6a UTP patch cord for short interconnects where Cat6a bandwidth and RJ45 compatibility are required. For installations exposed to strong electromagnetic interference or where individual cable shielding is necessary, consider shielded alternatives. Verify that connected devices and patch panels support Cat6a performance to take full advantage of the cable’s characteristics.
