Cat6a Networking Cable VALUE 1.5m Black U/UTP

VALUE Cat6a Networking Cable 1.5m Black U/UTP is a network patch cable engineered for high-speed wired connections between computers, switches, routers and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The cable uses U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall braid not present) construction suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short-to-medium distances and includes RJ-45 connectors on both ends for plug-and-play operation. The black jacket provides a discreet, professional appearance compatible with office and home installations.

Advantages

The Cat6a cable supports higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with earlier category cables, reducing crosstalk and maintaining signal integrity for demanding data applications. Its 1.5 m length offers a convenient connection distance for desktop and rack-mounted equipment without excess cable slack. The molded RJ-45 plugs provide consistent contact and ease of insertion, while the durable outer jacket protects the cable from everyday wear.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops and workstations to network switches or routers
• Patch connections in office network cabinets and wall ports
• High-speed data transfer between networked storage devices and servers
• Home and small office setups requiring reliable Gigabit and 10 Gigabit links

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Length: 1.5 meters
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper conductors
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, unshielded overall)
• Connector type: RJ-45 male on both ends
• Color: black outer jacket
• Supported standards: suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over supported distances

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other end into the corresponding port on a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure physical connection. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and kinks in the cable and maintain reasonable separation from sources of electromagnetic interference where possible. After connecting, verify link status on your device or network equipment and configure network settings as required by your environment.

Usage recommendations

For stable 10 Gigabit performance, use this Cat6a cable within typical short-to-medium run lengths and route away from high-voltage power cables. When installing in structured cabling, follow site best practices for bend radius and strain relief to maintain signal integrity and prolong service life.
