Networking Cable Helos 262990 Red Yellow 3m Cat6 U/UTP

The Helos 262990 networking cable is a 3 m Cat6 U/UTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts. Designed for reliable high-speed data transmission, this cable supports typical Gigabit Ethernet and other LAN connections while its red and yellow jacket colors improve visibility and identification in crowded cable installations. The U/UTP construction provides consistent electrical performance for home, office, and small data center environments.

Advantages

This Cat6 U/UTP cable delivers stable signal transmission for up to Gigabit speeds thanks to Category 6 performance characteristics and quality connector plating. The 3 m length offers flexibility for desk-to-switch connections without excess slack. The dual-color (red and yellow) outer jacket simplifies cable management and reduces the chance of mispatching in multi-cable setups. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, printers or IP phones to switches and routers
• Short runs in patch panels and wall outlets
• Home and small office network installations
• Temporary or permanent cabling where color coding is useful

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall unshielded)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector contacts: gold-plated
• Outer color: red and yellow

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (PC, switch, router, or patch panel) and the other connector into the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the locking clip clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends or kinks and maintain strain relief at connection points. For best results, keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use the red/yellow color coding to mark critical links or separate networks; limit cable runs within recommended lengths for the intended network standard and avoid excessive bending near the connectors to preserve performance.
