Microconnect B-UTP601P networking cable Purple 1 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP601P is a 1 m Cat6 networking cable with U/UTP construction and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports Cat6 frequencies up to 250 MHz and is suitable for connecting switches, modems, routers or patch panels in small office and home network setups. The cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and features latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation. Its purple colour helps visually identify cables in a structured network.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable is tested to the Cat6 standard (up to 250 MHz) and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The U/UTP construction offers consistent signal performance for typical home and small office applications. RJ-45 connectors on both ends provide a universal fit for network devices and the integrated latch protection prevents the connector clip from breaking when routing the cable through tight spaces. The 1 m length and lightweight design make it convenient for short patch runs and tidy installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to patch panel or router in small office environments
• Home network connections between modem, router, PC or media devices
• Short patch runs in structured cabling and entertainment setups

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router or modem) and the other into the destination port (patch panel, keystone jack or device). Ensure the connectors click into place and that the latch is not obstructed. Route the cable carefully to avoid sharp bends or pinching; maintain the 1 m length for a neat, short patch connection. For structured installations, label both ends to simplify future identification.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for short indoor connections and patching within racks or wall outlets. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference. For longer runs or environments with strong electromagnetic interference, consider shielded cable types or higher-category solutions.
