Network Cable ZOY ZCR05G Ethernet Cat. 6a UTP CCA 0.5m Gray

The ZOY ZCR05G Ethernet Cat. 6a UTP CCA 0.5m in gray is a short patch cable designed for reliable network connections where space is limited. Constructed with CCA (copper-coated aluminum) conductors and UTP (unshielded twisted pair) geometry, this Cat 6a cable supports higher data rates and improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables. At 0.5 meters length, it is suitable for connecting devices within racks, between nearby networking equipment, or for tidy desktop installations where excess cable should be avoided.

Advantages

This Cat 6a cable provides elevated bandwidth capacity suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and applications that benefit from reduced near-end crosstalk. The compact 0.5 m length reduces clutter and improves airflow in dense equipment setups. The gray jacket offers a neutral appearance for professional environments, and the cable’s construction balances cost and conductivity for everyday networking tasks.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches, patch panels and servers in racks
• Desktop connections for PCs, VoIP phones and networked peripherals
• Home network setups where short patch leads are required
• Temporary or permanent connections in office workstations and meeting rooms

Key specifications

• Category: Cat. 6a UTP
• Conductor type: Copper-clad aluminum (CCA)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector: RJ45 terminated on both ends
• Color: Gray
• Shielding: Unshielded (UTP)
• Suitable for: Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until it clicks to create a secure connection. Use this 0.5 m cable to link devices that are close together, such as patch-panel ports to nearby switches or routers to desktop computers. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain signal quality. For cable management, route the cable along cable trays or use short ties to prevent tension on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use the ZOY Cat 6a UTP cable for short-distance installations where reduced cable slack and clear routing are priorities. For long runs or environments with high electromagnetic interference, consider using shielded cables or solid copper conductors to optimise performance.
