Microconnect B-UTP601 networking cable Grey 1 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP601 RJ-45 Cat6 1m Grey is a 1‑metre unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) networking cable designed for reliable high-speed data connections between devices such as switches, routers, modems or to structured infrastructure via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable conforms to the Cat6 standard, is tested up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. It includes latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to reduce the risk of connector damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and uses RJ-45 connectors on both ends for broad compatibility with network equipment. U/UTP construction helps minimise electromagnetic interference in typical home and small office environments. Its 1 m length and grey colour provide a compact, unobtrusive solution for patching and short interconnects. Lightweight construction makes handling and installation straightforward.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Short interconnects in home and small office networks
• Audio/video and entertainment device networking
• Upgrading existing Cat5e/Cat5 links to Cat6 standards over short distances

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the source device (for example a router or switch) and the other RJ-45 connector into the destination port (patch panel, keystone jack, wall outlet or another network device). Ensure connectors click into place to confirm the latch is engaged. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it parallel and close to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect B-UTP601 for short-distance connections up to 1 m inside cabinets, racks or between nearby devices. For longer runs or environments with strong electromagnetic interference, consider shielded cable types or structured cabling designed for longer distances.
