LANVIEW LightFlex CAT6 U/UTP Patch Cable 5m Grey

The LANVIEW LightFlex CAT6 U/UTP patch cable delivers reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance for professional structured cabling systems. This 5-metre cable is engineered with four twisted pairs of oxygen-free copper conductors, ensuring low signal attenuation and high data integrity. The gold-plated RJ45 connectors provide optimum conductivity and long-term corrosion resistance, making it a dependable solution for both permanent and temporary network installations.

Advantages

This patch cable features stranded 24 AWG copper wire, which offers excellent flexibility to accommodate tight bends and confined spaces without compromising performance. The U/UTP shielding method reduces crosstalk and external interference, maintaining signal quality over the full 5 metre length. With a bandwidth of 250 MHz, the cable supports high-speed data transmission up to 1 Gbps, making it suitable for modern gigabit networks. The durable PVC jacket protects against mechanical stress and abrasion, ensuring a long service life.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops, and printers to network switches
• Linking routers, modems, and access points to LAN infrastructure
• Setting up temporary network connections in offices or events
• Extending connections between patch panels and network devices

Recommendations

To achieve optimal performance, connect the cable to Gigabit Ethernet ports and avoid running it parallel to power cables. When installing, ensure that the RJ45 connectors are fully inserted into the ports and that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius. For permanent installations, consider using cable ties or clips to keep the cable organised and protected.
