DSIT CAT 6 Network Cable U/UTP - 0.25 Meter - Red - CCA (DC-C65-002)

Short patch cables are often the missing link in tidy network setups, and this DSIT CAT 6 cable solves that with a compact 0.25-meter length. It connects devices in tight spaces—like between a patch panel and a switch, or a router and a nearby modem—without excess cable clutter. The red jacket adds quick visual identification in dense racks.

Who is it for

Network administrators, IT technicians, and home users who need a reliable, short Ethernet connection for high-density environments, server rooms, or desktop setups where space is limited and cable management matters.

Main features

• CAT 6 performance with up to 1 Gbps data transfer and 250 MHz bandwidth, ideal for Gigabit Ethernet.
• U/UTP unshielded twisted pair construction with CCA (copper-clad aluminum) conductors, offering a cost-effective solution for short runs.
• Compact 0.25-meter length reduces clutter and improves airflow in racks and cabinets.
• RJ45 male connectors on both ends, wired to TIA/EIA-568-B standard for universal compatibility.
• Durable PVC jacket in red for easy identification and protection against everyday wear.
• Backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5 networks, ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure.
