InLine Flat Ultraslim Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.6 Gigabit ready white 0.5m

The Flat Patch Cable InLine 71655W 0.5m Cat.6 U/UTP White is a 0.5 m Category 6 network patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in home and office environments. This ultra-flat, four-pair U/UTP cable has a profile height of approximately 1 mm, enabling discreet routing behind furniture, under carpets, along skirting boards or inside narrow cable channels. It connects switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices while supporting Gigabit Ethernet performance where physical layout requires a low-profile cable.

Advantages

The ultra-slim flat profile reduces visible cabling and fits into tight spaces where standard round cables cannot be placed. As a Cat.6 U/UTP cable it provides reliable twisted-pair performance for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet links. The white jacket offers a neutral appearance that integrates with light-coloured interiors. Its short 0.5 m length minimises excess cable in patching areas and helps maintain tidy cable runs in racks and termination points.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs in home or small office networks
• Patching network ports in racks where space and airflow are considerations
• Routing along skirting boards, behind furniture or under carpets for discreet installation
• Short point-to-point links between devices on a desk or media cabinet

How to use

Insert RJ45 plugs into the corresponding network ports of devices such as switches, routers or network adapters until the latch clicks. Use the 0.5 m flat patch cable for short connections where minimal slack is required; route the cable along edges, behind furniture or under carpets as needed, ensuring the path is free from sharp objects or heavy foot traffic that could compress or damage the cable. For rack installations, lay the flat cable along cable management channels or in gaps between equipment to preserve airflow.

Recommendations

Avoid repeated sharp bends and do not place heavy objects on the cable to maintain signal integrity. For permanent or outdoor installations, select a cable with appropriate environmental ratings; this flat Cat.6 U/UTP patch cable is intended for indoor use and short connections between network devices.
