Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT6 RJ-45 U/UTP 0.25m Grey

The ProXtend CAT6 U/UTP CU LSZH Ethernet Cable (0.25 m) with RJ-45 connectors on both ends is designed for reliable gigabit network connections. Constructed with 99.9% pure copper strands (AWG 24) and a LSZH outer jacket, this grey cable offers low-smoke, low-toxicity behavior in case of fire and supports PoE+ for powered devices. The cable features strain relief and a snagless latch for secure, durable installations, and 50µ"U gold-plated RJ-45 contacts to improve transmission quality and connector longevity.

Advantages

This CAT6 U/UTP cable provides gigabit-capable performance with 99.9% pure copper conductors and AWG 24 for consistent signal quality. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and hazardous gases during a fire, while strain relief and a snagless latch increase mechanical durability and ease of installation. 50µ"U gold plating on the RJ-45 contacts enhances corrosion resistance and can deliver higher throughput compared with standard metal-plated connectors. The cable supports PoE+ and standard 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networking.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers, and network devices (0.25 m length)
• Gigabit Ethernet networks (1000 Mbit/s)
• PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones, cameras, and access points

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors click into place with the snagless latch for a secure connection. Use this 0.25 m cable for short-distance patching in patch panels, switch-to-device links, or to reduce cable clutter in rack or desktop setups. Verify PoE+ compatibility on both connected devices before relying on powered operation.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short patch runs only; avoid stretching or bending the cable sharply near the connectors. Keep away from strong electromagnetic interference sources for best performance, and replace the cable if the gold plating or jacket shows visible damage.
