Lindy 47514 networking cable Red 5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

Cat.6 U/UTP flat network cable supporting bandwidths up to 250 MHz and suitable for Ethernet up to 1GBase-T. The cable is unshielded (U/UTP) and designed as a thin, flexible ribbon to allow installation in spaces with limited room. Manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and individually packed in a polybag. Gold-plated contacts and a snagless connector design improve durability and connection reliability.

Advantages

The Cat.6 flat cable provides operating frequencies up to 250 MHz while remaining unshielded, enabling Gigabit Ethernet performance through optimized electrical parameters (NExT, FExT). Its flat, very flexible construction makes routing in tight spaces easier. Gold-plated contacts reduce corrosion and ensure long-term reliable connections. A robust snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during installation and removal.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6 (U/UTP)
• Bandwidth / Frequency: up to 250 MHz
• Supported Ethernet: up to 1GBase-T
• Construction: flat ribbon, very flexible
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Connector feature: snagless strain relief
• Standard: manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801
• Packaging: individually packed in polybag

How to use

Route the flat Cat.6 cable through the available space, avoiding sharp bends with radii smaller than recommended for twisted-pair cables. Insert connectors securely into compatible RJ45 ports until the latch engages; the snagless strain relief protects the latch during handling. Use the cable for Gigabit Ethernet connections where an unshielded Cat.6 cable meeting ISO/IEC 11801 is sufficient. Store unused lengths in their polybag to protect contacts from contamination.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain recommended bend radii. Inspect connectors for contamination before installation and ensure compatibility with 1GBase-T network equipment.
