LinkIT Flat U/FTP Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cable, 5m, Blue STP-FL6A-00500-BL

Running high-speed network connections in tight spaces can be a challenge, especially when standard round cables are too bulky for cable ducts or under carpets. The LinkIT Flat U/FTP Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cable solves this problem with a slim, flat design that easily fits along baseboards, under rugs, and through narrow cable management channels. This 5-meter blue cable delivers reliable 10 Gigabit performance with shielded twisted pairs to minimize interference, making it ideal for connecting PCs, servers, switches, routers, smart TVs, and gaming consoles in both home and office environments.

Who is it for

This cable is perfect for network administrators, IT professionals, and home users who need a high-speed, low-profile Ethernet connection. It is especially useful in setups where cables must be hidden or routed through tight spaces without sacrificing performance. Whether you are upgrading to 10GbE networking or simply need a durable patch cable for everyday use, this flat Cat6A cable offers the flexibility and speed required for demanding applications.

Tips

When routing this flat cable, avoid sharp bends that could damage the internal twisted pairs. For best performance, keep the cable away from power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference. The flat design is ideal for under-carpet installation, but ensure the carpet does not exert excessive pressure on the cable over time.
