Ethernet cable Zoy ZCR05BK Cat 6 UTP CCA, 0.5 m, black

Zoy ZCR05BK is a Cat 6 UTP Ethernet patch cable with copper-clad aluminium (CCA) conductors and a 0.5 m length in black. It is designed to connect routers, switches, PCs and other network devices over short distances, providing a compact cable for tidy workstation layouts and temporary or permanent connections where space is limited. The cable follows Cat 6 distancing and twist specifications for reduced crosstalk compared to lower categories and is suitable for typical home and small office gigabit Ethernet links over short runs.

Advantages

The cable combines Cat 6 performance characteristics with a short 0.5 m length for minimal clutter and easier cable management in confined setups. UTP construction keeps the cable flexible and easy to route, while the CCA conductors provide a cost-effective conductive path compatible with standard RJ45 connectors. The black jacket offers neutral aesthetics that blend with most equipment and office environments.

Suitable for

• Short connections between network devices (router to switch, switch to PC)
• Tidy desktop or rack patching where minimal cable slack is desired
• Temporary network setups, testing and configuration tasks
• Home networks and small office layouts with close-proximity devices

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 6 UTP
• Conductor type: copper-clad aluminium (CCA)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 termination (8P8C)
• Color: black
• Shielding: unshielded (UTP)
• Typical supported link: gigabit Ethernet over short runs

How to use

Insert the RJ45 plug into the Ethernet port of each device until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Ensure the cable is not sharply bent near the connectors and avoid placing it under heavy compressive loads. For best performance, keep this short cable for direct device-to-device links or in patch panels and do not extend beyond the intended short-run application where higher-quality solid copper cabling may be preferable for longer distances.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat 6 UTP CCA 0.5 m cable for short, indoor connections in home and small office environments. Avoid using it for outdoor installations or long-distance runs; for permanent infrastructure exceeding short patch distances, choose solid copper Cat 6 or higher-rated cabling and proper shielding where required.
