Lindy 48176 networking cable Blue 7.5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Lindy 48176 RJ-45 Cat6 networking cable is a 7.5 m U/UTP patch cable designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet connections. Fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and finished in blue, this Cat6 cable provides structured cabling performance for desktop, patch panel and switch-to-device links. The U/UTP construction supports reliable high-speed data transmission while maintaining a compact, flexible form factor suitable for installations in offices, server rooms and home networks.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable delivers stable Gigabit Ethernet performance over a 7.5 m run with U/UTP shielding to reduce crosstalk in standard network environments. The cable is terminated with standard RJ-45 plugs on both ends for universal compatibility with networking equipment. Its 7.5 m length offers a balance between reach and cable management, and the blue jacket makes it easy to identify within structured cabling systems. The construction is aimed at durability and consistent signal quality for everyday use.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, printers and networked peripherals to switches or patch panels
• Wiring between switches and network outlets in office or data cabinet environments
• Home network setups requiring Gigabit Ethernet connections
• Temporary or permanent patching in server rooms and telecommunications closets

Key specifications

• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Cabling standard: Category 6 (Cat6)
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs with overall unshielded jacket)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Supported link technology: 10/100/1000Base-T(X) (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Color: Blue

How to use

Route the Lindy RJ-45 Cat6 cable between the two network endpoints, ensuring the cable is not sharply bent or pinched along its length. Insert the RJ-45 connectors fully into the corresponding ports on devices or patch panels until they click. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and secure excess length with cable ties or appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connectors. Test the connection using network diagnostics or link LEDs to confirm Gigabit link speed where supported.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for standard Gigabit Ethernet connections in office and home environments. For environments with significant electromagnetic interference or when additional shielding is required, consider a screened cable variant. Inspect connectors periodically for wear and replace cables that show visible damage to maintain reliable network performance.
