InLine Flat Ultraslim Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.6 Gigabit ready black 5m

Flat InLine Patch Cable Cat.6 Gigabit ready, 5 m long, designed for LAN data networks without U/UTP shielding. This ultra-flat, 4-pair twisted-pair cable has a profile height of about 1 mm and is intended for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet connections between switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices. Its low-profile construction allows routing behind furniture, along skirting boards, in door jambs or under carpets, and helps maintain airflow and access when used inside server racks.

Advantages

The flat Cat.6 design minimizes space requirements while preserving the four twisted pairs needed for reliable data transmission. At 5 m length with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and black outer jacket, the cable supports Gigabit-capable Cat.6 performance for typical LAN tasks. Its slim profile makes installation simpler in constrained or visible areas and reduces cable bulking under carpets or along walls.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs
• Linking network cards and print servers
• Routing in tight spaces behind furniture or skirting boards
• Use inside racks where low-profile cabling improves airflow and accessibility

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6 (Gigabit ready)
• Length: 5 m
• Cable type: 4-pair twisted, ultra-flat (approx. 1 mm profile height)
• Shielding: without U/UTP shielding (unshielded)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Black

How to use

Route the flat patch cable from device to device, inserting RJ-45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports until the connectors click into place. For concealed installations, guide the cable along edges, under carpets or behind furniture while avoiding sharp bends that could stress the conductors. When used in racks, lay the cable to leave space for airflow and access to ports.

Recommendations

Do not exceed the recommended bend radius and avoid crushing the cable under heavy objects. For best performance, keep cable runs within standard Ethernet length limits and avoid placing long parallel runs next to high-power electrical cables to reduce potential interference.
