Microconnect UTP6015B networking cable Blue 1.5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP6015B RJ-45 Cat6 1.5m Blue is an unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) networking cable designed for connecting network devices such as switches, modems and routers to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The 1.5 m cable supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, is backwards compatible with Cat5e/Cat5 and is fitted with RJ-45 connectors and a protective boot to reduce strain on the connector during installation.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides tested performance up to 250 MHz and supports high data rates appropriate for gigabit and multi-gigabit networks. Backwards compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 ensures use with existing infrastructure. The molded snagless boot protects the connector clip when routing the cable through confined spaces, and the 1.5 m length is suitable for short runs between devices in home or small office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel and keystone jack terminations
• Home and small office networks
• Entertainment devices such as smart TVs and media players

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure the connector clicks into place and avoid bending the cable sharply near the connector or running it under heavy loads. Use the built-in snagless boot to protect the clip when pulling the cable through tight conduits or cable channels.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for your network equipment, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines, and test connections after installation to verify link speed and signal integrity.
