Microconnect UTP601G networking cable Green 1 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP601G RJ-45 Cat6 1m Green is a 1-metre UTP network patch cable designed for connecting network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to infrastructure components like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. The cable supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, and features RJ-45 connectors with protective boots to reduce risk of damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides tested performance up to 250 MHz and supports data rates appropriate for high-speed local networks. U/UTP construction helps minimise interference in typical small office and home network environments. The integrated snaggles (boots) protect the connector latch during installation, and the 1 m length and bright green colour make it easy to route and identify in patching setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network cabling
• Entertainment systems and home media devices
• Short patch runs in server rooms or network closets

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Format: U/UTP

• Length: 1 m
• Data rate (manufacturer): up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Green
• Weight: 0.04 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running parallel to strong electrical sources to reduce interference. The protective boot will help prevent latch damage when pulling the cable through confined spaces.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for patch connections, avoid excessive bending or kinking, and use Cat6-compliant patch panels and ports. For longer permanent installations, consider using in-wall rated or shielded alternatives if required by local cabling standards.
