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

Flat InLine Patch Cable Cat.6, ultra-flat design with a profile height of approximately 1 mm and a length of 5 m. The cable is a 4-pair twisted U/UTP patch lead intended for LAN data networks and supports Gigabit-ready Cat.6 performance. Its flat profile and flexibility allow installation behind furniture, skirting boards, door jambs or under carpets and make it suitable for use inside racks where improved air circulation and easier access to ports are required. The product is blue and intended for Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit connections between switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices.

Advantages

The flat 4-pair twisted U/UTP construction provides Cat.6 performance with reduced interference in typical LAN environments while keeping the cable profile very low for discreet routing. The 5 m length offers reach for most office and home layouts, and the flat form factor facilitates placement under floor coverings and along edges. Its design supports installation inside racks to aid air circulation and simplify access to cable terminations and sockets.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs in office or home networks
• Patch connections to network cards and print servers
• Discrete cabling behind furniture, skirting boards or under carpets
• Use inside server or network racks where space and airflow management are important

How to use

Route the flat patch cable between the devices to be connected, keeping the cable flat against surfaces for discreet installation. Insert RJ45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your switch, router, network card or print server until they click into place. When installing under carpets or behind skirting boards, ensure connectors are not subject to sharp bends or compression. For rack installations, lay the cable along cable management channels to maintain airflow and accessibility.

Recommendations

Avoid tight bending at the connector ends and do not run the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines to minimise electromagnetic interference. For optimal performance, use Cat.6-compatible network equipment and maintain proper connector seating.
