DSIT CAT 6 Network Cable U/UTP - 20 m - Violet - CCA (DC-C68-200)

Unreliable or slow network connections can cripple productivity, causing lag in video calls, interrupted data transfers, and frustrating downtime. The DSIT CAT 6 Network Cable U/UTP, 20 meters in violet, delivers a stable, high-speed link for your Ethernet devices. With a bandwidth of up to 250 MHz and support for Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps), this cable ensures smooth streaming, gaming, and large file transfers. Its unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction with copper clad aluminum (CCA) conductors offers a cost-effective solution without compromising performance for everyday networking. The cable is backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5, making it a versatile choice for both new and existing setups.

Who is it for

This cable is ideal for home users, office workers, and IT professionals who need a reliable wired connection between computers, routers, switches, game consoles, and other network devices. It is particularly suited for installations where a longer reach is required, such as connecting a workstation across a room or linking devices in different areas without sacrificing speed.

Tips

To maximise performance, avoid sharp bends or kinks when routing the cable, and keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference such as power lines or fluorescent lights. For best results, pair with Cat 6 compatible devices to fully utilise the 1 Gbps speed. The violet colour can be used to colour-code your network for easier troubleshooting.
