ROLINE Cat.6 UTP PoE Patch Cable, Red, 5 m 21.51.1561

In modern office networks, reliable connectivity is not a luxury—it is a necessity. The ROLINE Cat.6 UTP PoE Patch Cable delivers stable Gigabit Ethernet performance for workstations, access points, IP cameras, and other Power over Ethernet devices. Its 5-meter length bridges equipment across desks, patch panels, and wall outlets without excess slack or tension.

Who is it for

This cable is ideal for IT administrators, system integrators, and small business owners who need a dependable, cost-effective link for daily network operations. It suits environments where PoE-powered devices are deployed and where unshielded twisted pair cabling is acceptable—such as offices, classrooms, and retail spaces with low electromagnetic interference.

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 for flexibility and easy routing
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) to power compatible devices over the same cable
• Stranded copper conductors (AWG 24/7) for durability in frequent patching scenarios
• Gold-plated RJ45 contacts ensure reliable, corrosion-resistant connections
• Red PVC jacket for high visibility and easy identification in dense cabling
• Wired to TIA/EIA 568B standard for consistent pin assignments

Tips

For best performance, avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the minimum bend radius. Keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference, as UTP cables are unshielded. When connecting PoE devices, verify that your switch or injector provides the required power budget.
