InLine Flat Ultraslim Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.6 Gigabit ready white 1m

Flat InLine® Patch Cable for LAN data networks in Cat.6 without U/UTP shielding. The cable is a 4-pair twisted (Twist) ultra-flat patch cable with a profile height of 1 mm and a length of 1 m, finished in white. It is designed for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet connections between switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices. The slim profile allows routing in restricted spaces while maintaining Cat.6 performance for high-speed data transmission.

Advantages

The ultra-flat design (1 mm profile height) enables discreet installation behind furniture, skirting boards, door jambs or under carpets. As a Cat.6 U/UTP patch cable it supports reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections and reduces electromagnetic interference compared with lower-grade cables. Its flat shape also improves airflow inside rack enclosures, aiding heat dissipation and simplifying access to sockets and cable runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs in home or office networks
• Linking network interface cards and print servers to switches
• Routing under carpets, along skirting boards or behind furniture in tight spaces
• Use in rack cabinets where low-profile cabling improves airflow and access

How to use

Route the flat patch cable between devices, keeping bends gentle to avoid stress on the conductors. Lay the cable along skirting boards, behind furniture or under carpets as needed; secure with adhesive clips or tape suitable for cabling if required. Plug RJ45 connectors into corresponding ports on switches, routers, network cards or printers until they click. Verify network link status on connected devices and perform a speed or connectivity test if necessary.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and prolonged compression (for example, under heavy furniture). Keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and equipment that may generate strong electromagnetic interference. When installing inside rack cabinets, arrange cables to preserve airflow and prevent obstruction of ventilation paths.
