InLine platte ultraslim patchkabel U/UTP Cat.6 gigabit-geschikt rood 0,5m

The InLine Flat Patch Cable InLine Cat.6 Gigabit ready 0.5m red is a 0.5 metre flat Cat.6 Ethernet cable engineered for Gigabit networks and space-constrained installations. Its ultraslim flat profile allows routing under carpets, along skirting boards or through narrow cable channels while the red jacket provides clear visual identification. The cable uses an unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) design suitable for typical office and home network environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is desired and reliable Gigabit transmission is required.

Advantages

The flat construction minimizes bending radius and occupies less space than round cables, simplifying cable management in dense installations. As a Cat.6 cable it supports higher bandwidth and improved performance for Gigabit Ethernet compared with legacy Cat.5e solutions. The red outer jacket improves visibility for maintenance and rapid identification of specific links. The U/UTP pair configuration helps reduce crosstalk between pairs while keeping the cable thin and flexible for easy routing.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home and small office networks
• Routing through tight gaps, under carpets and along walls
• Temporary patching in server cabinets and patch panels
• Color-coded installations where visual identification is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6, suitable for Gigabit Ethernet
• Length: 0.5 m
• Construction: flat / ultraslim design
• Conductor type: twisted pair (U/UTP)
• Jacket colour: red
• Typical use: patch cable for short links and patch panels

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the network port of your device (PC, switch, router) and the other connector to the corresponding port on the opposite device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure physical and electrical connection. Route the flat cable along the desired path, avoiding sharp kinks and high-compression points to maintain signal integrity. For best results keep the cable separated from strong electromagnetic sources where possible.

Recommendations

Use this flat Cat.6 cable for short-distance Gigabit links and color-coded patching. Avoid subjecting the cable to excessive mechanical stress or repeated sharp bends; for permanent outdoor or plenum installations select a cable rated for those environments.
