X-Shield Networking Cable XS-CAT6-UUTP-BLK-7M 7m Cat6 U/UTP Black

The X-Shield Networking Cable XS-CAT6-UUTP-BLK-7M is a 7 meter Cat6 Ethernet cable engineered for reliable high-speed data transmission in home and office networks. The cable uses U/UTP shielding and terminated RJ-45 connectors at both ends to maintain consistent signal integrity and reduce external interference. Designed to support Gigabit Ethernet, this Cat6 cable is suitable for common network tasks such as streaming, online gaming and file transfers while providing a flexible length for desktop or rack installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers balanced electrical characteristics to deliver up to 1 Gbps data throughput over standard Ethernet networks. The U/UTP construction provides a shielded overall foil combined with unshielded twisted pairs to protect against electromagnetic interference while remaining lightweight and easy to route. Molded RJ-45 connectors ensure secure plug-in connections and reduce strain at the cable ends for improved durability. The 7 meter length gives additional reach without excess slack, useful for connecting devices across rooms or in small office layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers or workstations to a router or switch
• Wired connections for smart TVs, game consoles and streaming devices
• Home and small office network patching and device linking
• Temporary or semi-permanent cabling in meeting rooms and shared spaces

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 7 meters
• Shielding type: U/UTP (overall foil shield, unshielded twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends, molded strain relief
• Maximum supported speed: up to 1 Gbps over Ethernet
• Color: Black

How to use

Route the cable between network devices avoiding tight bends and sharp edges that could damage the jacket or internal pairs. Insert RJ-45 connectors fully into the corresponding ports on routers, switches, computers or media devices until an audible click confirms connection. For best signal performance, keep the cable away from heavy power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference and ensure secure, strain-relieved termination to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

For optimal Gigabit performance, use the cable in combination with compatible Cat6-rated ports and network equipment configured for 1000BASE-T. When running multiple cables in parallel, maintain separation from power cables and consider using cable management to prevent excessive bending or crushing.
