Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT6 RJ-45 U/UTP 2M Orange

The ProXtend CAT6 U/UTP CU LSZH Ethernet Cable in orange is a 2 m network cable designed for Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T). It is constructed with 99.9% pure copper strands (AWG 24) and an LSZH outer jacket to reduce smoke and toxic gases in case of fire. The cable uses RJ-45 connectors with 50 µin gold plating for improved contact durability and transmission quality. This U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cable supports PoE+ and is suitable for typical office and home networking setups requiring reliable high-speed connections.

Advantages

The cable's 99.9% pure copper conductors and AWG 24 ensure low attenuation and stable Gigabit performance. The LSZH jacket provides enhanced safety by emitting minimal smoke and no halogen acid gases in fire conditions. Strain relief and a snagless latch protector increase connector durability and ease of installation. 50 µin gold-plated RJ-45 contacts offer better corrosion resistance and more consistent signal transfer compared with standard connectors.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet networks (10/100/1000Base-T)
• Office and home wired LAN connections
• Power over Ethernet installations up to PoE+
• Patch panels, switches, routers and networked devices

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other end into a switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use the integrated strain relief and the snagless design to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation. Verify link speed on your network devices to confirm Gigabit operation.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium runs within buildings where LSZH safety properties are preferred. Avoid outdoor exposure or direct burial unless additional protective conduits are used. For optimal performance, keep the cable length within Ethernet standards for horizontal runs and avoid sharp kinks or tight bundling with power cables.
