Microconnect B-UTP601B networking cable Blue 1 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP601B RJ-45 Cat6 1m Blue is a 1-meter networking cable designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10000 Mbit/s. Conforming to the Cat6 standard and featuring U/UTP construction, it provides tested performance up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 systems. The cable has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in confined spaces.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable supports gigabit and faster network applications, reduces interference with U/UTP shielding, and maintains compatibility with existing Cat5e and Cat5 infrastructure. Its 1 m length and blue jacket make it suitable for short patch runs between devices such as switches, routers, modems or patch panels. Latch protection on the connectors helps prevent accidental damage during installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to patch panel or router to modem over short distances
• Home and small office network cabling
• Connecting PCs, game consoles, smart TVs and networked entertainment devices

How to use

Plug an RJ-45 connector into the network port of the device (switch, router, modem, PC or patch panel) and insert the other RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port of the second device or wall outlet. Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it parallel to power mains to minimise interference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 cable for short patch connections (1 m). Test connections after installation and replace the cable if the latch or connector shows physical damage. Avoid excessive bending and exposure to heat or liquids.
