Networking cable X-Shield XS-CAT6-UUTP-BLK-10M 10m Cat6 U/UTP Black

The X-Shield XS-CAT6-UUTP-BLK-10M is a 10-meter Cat6 networking cable with U/UTP construction and molded RJ-45 connectors. Designed for structured cabling in homes, offices, and small networks, this black cable supports high-speed Ethernet up to gigabit class speeds, providing a stable physical link between switches, routers, networked computers, IP cameras and other compatible devices.

Advantages

This Cat6 U/UTP cable features an unshielded twisted pair core with an overall foil jacket to reduce external electromagnetic interference while maintaining flexibility for routing and installation. The 10 m length covers most typical room-to-room runs without the need for intermediate patch panels, and the molded connector ends offer strain relief to decrease connector wear and accidental disconnection. The cable meets Cat6 performance parameters for near-end crosstalk and return loss appropriate for 1 Gbps Ethernet and lower-latency applications.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections for desktop computers and workstations
• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small office/home office setups
• IP cameras and networked media players where a fixed 10 m run is required
• Temporary or permanent cable runs for VoIP phones and teleconferencing equipment

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 10 meters
• Shielding: U/UTP (overall foil with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Color: Black
• Connector type: RJ-45, molded with strain relief
• Conductor type: Copper conductors (solid or stranded depending on model batch)
• Bandwidth: Supports up to 250 MHz typical for Cat6

How to use

Route the cable between devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding tight kinks to preserve signal integrity. Plug RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports on switches, routers or network interfaces until the latch clicks. For installations near sources of strong electromagnetic noise, maintain separation from power cabling and large motors; use grounding practices at network equipment as recommended by your infrastructure guidelines. Test the connection after installation with network diagnostics to confirm link speed and stability.

Recommendations

For best results, avoid running this Cat6 cable parallel to mains power cables for long distances and do not exceed the 10 meter run without additional switching or patching. When used as intended for gigabit and lower-speed Ethernet applications, periodic inspection of connectors and testing of link performance will help ensure continued reliable operation.
