VALUE UTP Patch Cable Cat6 halogen-free 0.5 m, green, RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts

VALUE UTP Patch Cable Cat6 halogen-free 0.5 m, green, RJ-45 to RJ-45 is a short, flexible Ethernet patch cord designed for reliable network connections in offices, data cabinets and home networks. The cable follows the Cat6 standard with U/UTP unshielded twisted pair construction and uses RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts and 1:1 contact wiring according to EIA/TIA 568. Its halogen-free, flame-retardant and low-smoke jacket increases safety in confined or professional installations while the moulded kink protection and stranded copper conductors provide mechanical durability and bend flexibility.

Advantages

The halogen-free, flame-retardant and low-smoke jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire and meets safety requirements for enclosed spaces. Gold-plated contacts ensure stable signal transfer and corrosion resistance for long-term performance. Moulded kink protection at both ends and a flexible stranded copper construction allow the cable to be routed through narrow spaces and maintain reliable connections under repeated bending. The short 0.5 m length minimises clutter and signal loss for short interconnections between network devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels within racks and data cabinets
• Short interconnections between desktop network devices and wall outlets
• Compact home network setups and office workstations where short patch leads are required
• Environments that require halogen-free cabling for fire safety

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 plug into the corresponding network ports of your devices until the latch clicks. Use the 0.5 m VALUE Cat6 patch cable for short point-to-point connections where minimal slack is desired, for example between switch ports and adjacent patch panel ports or between a router and nearby modem. Avoid excessive force when routing the cable through tight spaces; the moulded kink protection and flexible stranded conductor allow for controlled bends but standard bend radius recommendations should be observed to preserve performance.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable run as short as necessary and avoid running near high-voltage power lines or strong electromagnetic sources. Inspect RJ-45 plugs for secure seating after installation and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show visible damage. Use halogen-free cabling in enclosed or public spaces where reduced smoke and toxic emissions are required by local safety regulations.
