X-Shield networking cable XS-CAT6-UUTP-WHI-50CM 0.5m U/UTP White

The X-Shield networking cable XS-CAT6-UUTP-WHI-50CM is a 0.5 m U/UTP Cat6 patch cable with RJ-45 connectors in white. Designed for reliable high-speed data transmission, this U/UTP cable combines an unshielded twisted pair core with an overall unshielded jacket to meet typical Cat6 performance requirements. Its compact 0.5 metre length is suitable for short links between network devices where minimal slack and tidy cable management are important.

Advantages

This Cat6 U/UTP cable provides stable gigabit-capable performance for LAN environments while occupying minimal space. The molded RJ-45 connectors ensure secure terminations and reduced connector strain. The white jacket offers a discreet, clean look for visible installations and helps keep network areas visually organized. The short 0.5 m length reduces signal reflections and clutter in patch panels, switches, or desktop connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting a switch to a patch panel or router in a rack with short distance requirements
• Linking desktop PCs, VoIP phones, or network printers to nearby network sockets
• Home or office installations where neat, short cable runs are preferred
• Temporary test setups and equipment bench connections

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 (supports up to 1 Gbps and suitable for typical gigabit Ethernet)
• Shielding type: U/UTP (overall unshielded jacket with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male, molded strain relief
• Conductor: copper (solid or stranded depending on manufacturer batch) suitable for Ethernet patching
• Color: White

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports of the devices you wish to connect until the connector latch clicks into place. Use the cable for short patching between switches, routers, patch panels, or directly to endpoint devices. Avoid excessive bending or kinking near the connector ends and ensure the cable is not pinched by furniture or cabinet doors to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and large sources of electromagnetic interference. Use this 0.5 m cable for short, tidy connections; for longer runs choose appropriately rated Cat6 cables and adhere to recommended maximum link lengths for Ethernet networks.
