InLine Flat patch cable, U/FTP, Cat.6A, yellow, 2m

The InLine Flat patch cable U/FTP Cat.6A yellow 2m is a 2-metre network patch lead designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in cramped routing environments. It uses an U/FTP (unshielded/foiled twisted pair) structure and Cat.6A specification to support enhanced performance and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables. Both ends are fitted with standard RJ-45 connectors and the cable's flat profile and yellow jacket allow discreet placement under carpets, along skirting boards or behind equipment while remaining visible for easy identification.

Advantages

The flat construction simplifies routing in narrow gaps and under furniture without creating bulky loops. U/FTP shielding around each pair helps limit electromagnetic interference and improves signal integrity for demanding applications. Cat.6A performance enables higher bandwidth and better headroom for gigabit and multi-gigabit connections. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure wide compatibility with network devices, and the yellow colour improves cable management by making the cable easier to trace in a bundle.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home or small office networks
• Routing Ethernet under carpets, along skirting boards or behind racks where space is limited
• Supporting gigabit and multi-gigabit LAN links and high-bandwidth applications
• Temporary or permanent patching in wiring closets, workstations or meeting rooms

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6A
• Shielding: U/FTP (foil around each twisted pair)
• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Profile: Flat cable
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device (PC, switch, router or access point) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the network equipment. Route the flat cable along the desired path, keeping it flat where it passes under carpets or along skirting boards to minimize visible profile. Avoid tight bends at the connector transition and do not sharply fold the cable to preserve internal pair geometry. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable separate from heavy power lines and mains adapters to reduce potential interference. Use the yellow colour to label or trace connections during installation. When deploying in permanent installations, verify link speed and cable performance with appropriate network testing tools to confirm expected throughput.
