ROLINE Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable, PoE, Black, 0.3 m (21.51.1515)

Short patch cables are often the weak link in a network rack—tight bends, poor termination, and lack of PoE support can cause intermittent connectivity and device failures. The ROLINE Cat.6 UTP Patch Cable solves this by delivering reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance in a compact 0.3 m length, ideal for patching between switches, patch panels, and PoE-powered devices in high-density installations.

Who is it for

Network administrators, IT technicians, and system integrators who need a dependable, short-reach cable for structured cabling in data centres, server rooms, and office networks. It is especially suited for connecting PoE devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points where space is limited and cable management matters.

Main features

• Cat.6 (Class E) performance with up to 250 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps data transfer rate.
• Unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction with stranded conductors for flexibility and easy routing.
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) to deliver data and power over a single cable.
• RJ45 male connectors on both ends, wired to TIA/EIA-568B standard.
• Durable PVC jacket in black for clear identification and long service life.
• Compact 0.3 m length reduces clutter and improves airflow in racks.

Tips

For best performance, avoid bending the cable beyond a radius of four times its diameter and keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference. When using with PoE devices, ensure your switch or injector is PoE-compliant. This cable is ideal for patch panels and wall outlets in structured cabling systems.
