InLine Patch cable flat, U/FTP, Cat.6A, TPE halogen-free, black, 20m

The InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.6A TPE halogen-free black 20m is a flat network cable engineered for high-speed Ethernet connections over longer distances. Built to Cat.6A performance, the cable supports enhanced data transmission characteristics and reduced crosstalk thanks to the U/FTP shielding design. The halogen-free thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) jacket provides mechanical flexibility and a safer material profile in environments where reduced smoke and corrosive gas generation is desired. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors at both ends ensure consistent contact quality and reliable signal transfer for typical structured cabling applications.

Advantages

The flat profile of the cable simplifies routing in tight spaces and under flooring while minimizing visible cable height. U/FTP shielding (overall unshielded with individually shielded pairs) improves immunity to electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables, which contributes to stable high-speed communication at Cat.6A specification. The halogen-free TPE jacket combines flexibility with enhanced safety characteristics for installations in offices, data centers, or residential environments. Gold-plated connectors reduce contact oxidation and help maintain long-term connection integrity.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed LAN connections
• Office networks where cables must be routed under carpets or in shallow channels
• Structured cabling runs between patch panels, switches and workstations
• Environments requiring halogen-free materials for reduced smoke and corrosive emissions

• Conductor type: stranded copper for flexible patching
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Cable jacket material: halogen-free TPE (thermoplastic elastomer)
• Form factor: flat cable profile for low-profile routing
• Length: 20 m
• Colour: black

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device or switch port and the other plug to the target device or patch panel. Use the cable’s flat profile to route along baseboards, under carpets, or through narrow raceways without excessive bending. Avoid sharp kinks and maintain gentle bends with a radius appropriate for flexible patch cables. Verify link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation to confirm expected performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable separated from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as large AC power cables and motors. Do not exceed recommended bend radii and avoid permanent compression under heavy furniture. Use labeled routing and patch panels in structured installations to maintain traceability and ease of maintenance.
