Lindy 45431 networking cable Black 0.5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Lindy Cat.6 UTP Premium RJ45 0.5m Black is a Cat.6 unshielded (U/UTP) network cable designed for data transmission up to 250 MHz and supporting Ethernet standards up to 1GBase-T. The cable features gold-plated contacts and a snagless connector design, and the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath reduces smoke and toxic halogen emissions, making it suitable for installation in public spaces. The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and is individually packaged in a polybag.

Advantages

The unshielded Cat.6 design delivers the electrophysical parameters required for Gigabit Ethernet while remaining flexible and easy to route. Gold-plated contacts provide corrosion-resistant, long-lasting connections, and the snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during installation and removal. The LSZH outer jacket minimises smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, improving safety in offices and public buildings.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to routers, switches and modems
• Gigabit Ethernet (1GBase-T) network links
• Patch panels and short patch runs in rack cabinets
• Indoor use in public spaces where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the router, switch or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it next to high-voltage power lines to minimise interference. For patching in racks, use the snagless feature to protect the connector when inserting and removing the cable.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m Lindy Cat.6 UTP cable for short patch connections and rack-mounted equipment where reliable Gigabit performance, low smoke emission and protected connectors are required. Do not exceed the recommended installation bend radius and avoid exposure to excessive heat or mechanical strain.
