Patch cable CAT6 UTP 1M

★★★★★ "CAT6 patch cables for every short connection in my rack — clean, reliable, Gigabit ready." Kobus S., Pretoria

CAT6 UTP Patch Cable — 1 Metre, Pre-Made

A 1-metre CAT6 UTP patch cable with factory-crimped RJ45 connectors. Rated for Gigabit speeds, ideal for connecting Gigabit PoE switches, NVRs, and network equipment where CAT6 performance is required over short distances.

Why This Patch Cable Stands Out

• CAT6 Gigabit Rating: Supports 1Gbps — the correct standard for Gigabit switches, modern NVRs, and any future network upgrades
• Factory-Crimped Reliability: Consistent machine terminations for every cable — no weak field-crimps that can cause intermittent connectivity issues
• 1M Right Length: Short enough to keep rack and desk cable management tidy, long enough to reach between adjacent equipment

Key Features

• 1-metre CAT6 UTP patch cable
• Supports Gigabit (1Gbps) speeds and PoE/PoE+
• Stranded conductors for flexible repeated use
• RJ45 factory-crimped both ends
• Suitable for switches, NVRs, cameras, and any Gigabit Ethernet equipment

Why You'll Love It

When your installation uses CAT6 throughout, your patch cables should match. CAT6 patch cables in the rack and at equipment connections ensure your entire channel meets CAT6 specification — important for Gigabit switches and PoE+ cameras.

FAQ

Is CAT6 better than CAT5e for IP cameras?
For most IP cameras, CAT5e is sufficient. CAT6 provides Gigabit speed support and better performance for PoE+ devices and longer runs — recommended for all new installations.

Can I mix CAT6 patch cables with CAT5e installation cable?
Yes — the channel will operate at the lower specification (CAT5e). For a full CAT6 channel, all components including patch cables should be CAT6.

Are these cables wired in T568A or T568B standard?
Standard patch cables are wired T568B on both ends (straight-through), suitable for all standard network connections.
