InLine Patch cable flat, U/FTP, Cat.6A, TPE halogen-free, grey, 15m

The InLine Patch Cable Flat U/FTP Cat.6A TPE Halogen-Free Grey 15m is a 15-metre flat network cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in home and office environments. Constructed with U/FTP shielding and Cat.6A performance, the cable supports high-bandwidth applications while the halogen-free TPE sheath provides flexibility and reduced risk in case of fire. Its flat profile and grey finish enable discreet installation along walls, under carpets or through narrow gaps without compromising connector compatibility thanks to standard RJ-45 terminations on both ends.

Advantages

The U/FTP design reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity for longer runs and denser network environments. Cat.6A specification allows for higher data rates and better performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet deployments. The flat construction simplifies routing in confined spaces and makes the cable easier to conceal. Halogen-free TPE material delivers improved safety characteristics compared to PVC and remains flexible at room temperatures for straightforward handling and installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home or small office networks
• High-speed data links for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and gigabit networks
• Running cables under carpets, along skirting boards or in cable channels where space is limited
• Temporary or permanent patching where reduced interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6A (U/FTP)
• Length: 15 m
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Sheath material: halogen-free TPE
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Grey
• Profile: flat design for low-profile routing

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your devices, ensuring proper orientation and a secure click. Route the flat cable along the desired path, pressing it into gaps or running it under skirting boards or carpet edges where needed. Avoid sharp bends at the connector ends and do not exceed the recommended bend radius to maintain performance. For wall-mounted installations, use adhesive cable clips or low-profile channels to keep the cable flat and supported.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as large motors or unshielded power lines. When installing multiple cables in parallel, maintain some separation to minimise mutual crosstalk. Inspect connectors before use and replace the cable if the sheath or connectors show visible damage. The cable is suitable for indoor use; avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture.
