LANBERG Cat6 U/UTP networking cable PCU6-10CU-0500-BK, RJ-45 to RJ-45, 5 m, black

The LANBERG Cat6 U/UTP networking cable PCU6-10CU-0500-BK is a straight-through Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. At 5 m length and constructed to Cat6 performance, it supports stable wired connections for home and office environments and is compatible with switches, routers, network cards and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The black outer jacket provides a discreet appearance for installations where visible cabling should blend with surroundings.

Advantages

This Cat6 U/UTP cable delivers reliable signal transmission for typical Gigabit Ethernet applications and improved headroom compared to older standards. The standard RJ-45 terminations ensure wide compatibility with network equipment. Its 5 m length offers flexibility for desk-to-wall or rack-to-device connections without excess slack in most small-office and home setups. The black jacket resists visible soiling and integrates easily into darker interiors.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and workstations to switches or routers
• Linking network devices such as VoIP phones, printers and NAS units
• Patch cabling between wall sockets and patch panels in small offices
• Temporary setups for events, testing or diagnostics requiring wired Ethernet

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 U/UTP (unshielded)
• Cable type: Straight-through Ethernet patch cable
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Black
• Suitable for: Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet applications

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your devices until the latch clicks. Use the cable to connect a computer or network appliance to a switch, router or wall outlet. Route the cable to avoid tight bends, sharp edges and sources of electrical interference to maintain signal integrity. If routing near power lines or large electrical equipment, keep reasonable separation to reduce potential crosstalk.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for connections within its 5 m length without excessive coiling; avoid kinking the conductor pairs and secure the cable with cable ties or clips to prevent movement. For installations requiring shielding, higher category ratings, or permanent in-wall runs, select an accordingly specified cable type.
