Networking Cable Draka Comteq TM31 Patch Cat6 1m

The Draka Comteq TM31 Patch Cat6 1m networking cable is a 1-meter Cat6a-rated Ethernet patch lead with RJ-45 connectors at each end, designed for high-speed data transfer and reliable wired network connections. The cable’s yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in patch panels and cable runs, while the Cat6a specification supports improved performance for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances. The construction prioritizes signal integrity and durability for repeated plug/unplug cycles in office or data center environments.

Advantages

This Cat6a patch cable offers stable high-frequency transmission, reduced crosstalk and improved shielding compared with older categories, helping to maintain consistent throughput. The 1 meter length reduces excess cable clutter and is convenient for connecting switches, routers, servers and wall outlets in tight rack or desktop setups. Durable RJ-45 connectors provide secure mating and the visible yellow jacket simplifies tracing and management within network installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers within office desktops or small server racks
• Patch panel to switch connections in structured cabling systems
• Short runs requiring Cat6a performance for Gigabit and 10G Ethernet over 1 m distances
• Environments where cable identification and tidy routing are important

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a performance level
• Length: 1 meter
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Conductor and pair configuration: twisted pairs suitable for high-frequency Ethernet
• Jacket color: yellow for easy identification
• Compatibility: designed for use with Ethernet equipment supporting Cat6/Cat6a standards

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Keep the cable routed to avoid tight bends or pinch points, and avoid excessive tension on the cable to preserve connector and conductor integrity. For best signal performance, minimize use of inline adapters and maintain recommended separation from strong electromagnetic sources.

Recommendations

Choose this 1 m Cat6a patch cable for short, direct connections where predictable high-speed performance and straightforward cable identification are required. For longer runs or installations requiring plenum-rated or shielded cable, select the appropriate variant to meet environmental and shielding needs.
