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

Flat InLine Patch Cable Cat.6, ultra-flat 4-pair U/UTP cable with a profile height of approximately 1 mm and a length of 5 m. The cable is intended for LAN data networks and supports Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet connections between switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices. The red design and slim profile allow routing the cable in tight or visible spaces such as behind furniture, skirting boards, door jambs or under carpets, and inside racks where its flat profile helps maintain air circulation and easier access to sockets and cables.

Advantages

The flat Cat.6 U/UTP design provides high-speed data transmission suitable for Gigabit networks while occupying minimal space. The ultra-slim profile enables discreet installation in narrow gaps and contributes to improved airflow when used inside equipment racks. The 5 m length offers flexibility for typical home and office cabling runs, and the red colour makes the cable easy to identify among other connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs in LAN environments
• Patch connections to network cards and print servers
• Installation behind furniture, skirting boards and door frames
• Runs under carpets and in other confined spaces
• Internal rack cabling where space and airflow are considerations

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end of the flat patch cable to the Ethernet port of your switch, router, hub or network device and the other end to the corresponding device port. Route the cable along edges, behind furniture, under carpets or along rack channels as required. Ensure the cable is not tightly bent beyond gentle curves to avoid damaging the internal pairs and to preserve signal performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress; keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources when possible. Use the red colour to label or visually separate critical connections in patch panels or network installations.
