Hypertec 246750-HY networking cable Blue 5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Hypertec 246750-HY Blue 5m Cat6 U/UTP networking cable is a 5‑metre Ethernet lead designed to deliver reliable Cat6 performance for home, office, and server-room environments. It features RJ‑45 connectors on both ends and U/UTP construction that provides consistent signal transmission for typical Gigabit Ethernet and high‑speed data applications. The blue sheath simplifies cable identification and helps keep network layouts organised.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers stable data transmission suitable for Gigabit networks and many higher‑speed applications within the cable's defined performance band. The U/UTP structure supports reduced crosstalk compared with simple unshielded pairs, while the RJ‑45 terminations ensure compatibility with standard network equipment. A 5 m length provides flexibility for typical desk-to-switch and equipment-to-router connections without excess slack.

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the switch, router, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For optimum performance, avoid tightly coiling the cable or running it in parallel with mains power cables over long distances.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for short to medium links where reliable Gigabit performance is required. For installations in high‑EMI environments or where extended shielding is necessary, consider shielded cable variants and appropriate grounding. Inspect connectors before use and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors are damaged.
