Networking Cable ROLINE Cat6a 1.5m Yellow U/UTP

The ROLINE Cat6a 1.5m Yellow U/UTP networking cable provides a compact, visible connection solution for wired networks. Built to the Cat6a specification with U/UTP (unshielded pair with overall unshielded) construction, it delivers reliable high-speed data transmission for typical home and office environments. Both ends feature standard RJ-45 connectors for plug-and-play compatibility with switches, routers, network interfaces and other Ethernet-enabled equipment. The 1.5 m length offers a balance between reach and cable management while the yellow jacket improves visibility in patch panels and under desks.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidths and improved performance compared with lower-category cables, helping to reduce crosstalk and interference in standard installations. U/UTP construction keeps the cable flexible and easy to route while maintaining performance for typical Ethernet deployments. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure broad device compatibility and simple installation without special tools. The bright yellow sheath aids identification of network segments and simplifies troubleshooting and maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and workstations to network switches and routers
• Patching between wall outlets and patch panels in small offices or home networks
• Temporary or permanent connections in structured cabling where 1.5 m length is sufficient
• Environments where cable visibility and quick identification are needed

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, overall unshielded)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Colour: Yellow
• Application: Ethernet networking (suitable for 10/100/1000 Mbps and higher Cat6a-defined rates)

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the plug clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For patch panel or wall outlet connections, plug one end into the outlet or panel port and the other into the network device or switch. When disconnecting, press the connector tab to release the plug before pulling it out to avoid damaging the latch.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tightly coiling the cable or running it parallel to mains power lines for long distances. Use cable management accessories to secure and label the cable for easier maintenance. If installations require enhanced protection from external interference or grounding, consider shielded alternatives and consult installation guidelines for structured cabling.
