Lindy 5m Cat.6 U/UTP Network Cable, Yellow

Network Cable Lindy 5m RJ-45 Cat6 Yellow is a Cat.6 U/UTP PVC cable designed for data transmission up to 250 MHz. The 5 m cable features RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and a snagless strain relief. It is suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 standards. The cable is supplied individually in a polybag and its yellow jacket improves visibility and identification in installations.

Advantages

The unshielded U/UTP design supports Gigabit Ethernet through optimized electrophysical parameters, while gold-plated contacts provide corrosion-resistant, reliable connections. The snagless connector design reduces the risk of damaging the latch during installation and removal. Compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 ensures consistent manufacturing and performance for structured cabling.

Suitable for

• Home and office Gigabit Ethernet connections
• Patch panels and wall outlets in structured cabling
• Connecting switches, routers and network devices
• Temporary or permanent installations where cable visibility is needed

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the Lindy Cat6 cable to the network port of your switch, router or device and the other end to the corresponding port or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it alongside high-voltage power lines to minimise interference. For installations through conduits or cable trays, check that bend radius and strain relief are maintained.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for Gigabit Ethernet links up to typical horizontal cable lengths; replace or upgrade to shielded cable types only if the installation environment requires additional electromagnetic interference protection. Store the cable in a dry place and avoid excessive pulling force when installing to preserve connector and cable integrity.
