InLine Flat patch cable, U/FTP, Cat.6A, blue, 5m

The InLine Flat patch cable U/FTP Cat.6A blue 5m is a 5-metre network patch cable designed for reliable high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed to Cat.6A specifications with U/FTP shielding and terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this flat cable aims to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference while fitting easily into narrow gaps along walls, under carpets or behind equipment.

Advantages

The U/FTP shielding encloses each twisted pair with foil to improve protection against external electromagnetic interference and near-end crosstalk, supporting stable data transmission at high frequencies. The flat cable profile minimizes bending radius constraints in cramped installations and allows neat routing under floor coverings or along skirting boards. RJ-45 terminations provide universal compatibility with standard network equipment. The blue jacket offers clear visual identification in mixed-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections in offices and home networks
• High-speed applications requiring Cat.6A performance (e.g., 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short runs)
• Installations with limited space where flat cable routing is needed
• Patch panels, switches and router connections

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6A (U/FTP)
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Design: flat cable profile for low-profile routing
• Colour: blue
• Shielding: overall foil plus individually foiled pairs (U/FTP)

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of a switch, router or computer and the other connector into the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the flat cable along walls, under desks or beneath carpets as required, avoiding sharp folds that exceed the recommended bending radius. For best signal quality, keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines and strong sources of electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use this flat U/FTP Cat.6A cable for short to medium runs where Cat.6A performance and reduced interference are needed. Avoid stretching the cable or bending it tightly around narrow radii; store excess length coiled with gentle loops. For permanent in-wall installations, verify local regulations and consider using cable types specifically rated for in-wall use.
