Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT6 RJ-45 15m Red

The ProXtend CAT6 F/UTP CCA Ethernet Cable (15 m) with RJ-45 connectors provides a cost-effective solution for wired networks. Constructed with copper-clad aluminum (CCA) conductors of AWG 26 and a foil shield (F/UTP), the cable offers protection against electromagnetic interference while supporting 10/100/1000Base-T(X) data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. The cable features gold-plated contacts, strain relief and latch protection and is finished in red.

Advantages

This shielded CAT6 cable combines economical CCA conductors with an overall foil screen to reduce EMI. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability, while strain relief and latch protection reinforce connector durability during installation and use. With a 15 m length, the cable suits medium-range connections and adheres to common Ethernet standards for gigabit networking.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to network switches or routers
• Wiring between network devices in office or home environments
• Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) connections
• Situations requiring shielded cabling to reduce EMI

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (PC, switch or router) and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged and avoid sharp bends near the connector and strain relief to maintain signal integrity. For best results, route the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic noise and secure it to prevent mechanical stress.

Recommendations

For reliable gigabit performance, ensure both network devices and ports support 1000Base-T. Do not exceed recommended bend radius and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimise interference.
