InLine flat patchkabel, U/FTP, Cat.6A, blå, 3 m

The InLine Flat patch cable U/FTP Cat.6A blue 3m is a 3-meter network cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It uses RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a U/FTP (unshielded overall with foil-shielded pairs) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The flat profile of the cable enables routing in narrow gaps, under carpets, along skirting boards or behind furniture while the blue sheath makes it easy to identify in multi-cable installations.

Advantages

The U/FTP Cat.6A design supports enhanced shielding at the pair level, which improves signal integrity for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and reduces susceptibility to external noise. The flat form factor simplifies installation in confined spaces and allows for cleaner cable management. Pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors provide plug-and-play convenience and maintain secure contact for consistent data throughput. The 3 m length offers a practical reach for typical workstation and home network layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops or network devices to switches and routers
• High-speed Ethernet links up to Cat6A performance, including 10 Gbps in suitable environments
• Routing along skirting boards, under carpets or through narrow cable channels
• Home offices, small business networks and server room patching over short distances

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A (U/FTP shielding)
• Cable length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Design: flat cable profile for low-profile routing
• Colour: blue

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your device and the network switch or router until the latch clicks into place. Avoid sharp bends at the connector ends to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. If routing under carpets or along skirting boards, ensure the cable is laid flat and not pinched by heavy furniture or doors. Test the connection with network diagnostic tools or the operating system's network status indicator to confirm link speed and stability.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain gentle bend radii. Use the flat cable where space is limited and choose a slightly longer length if you expect to move devices frequently to prevent tension on connectors.
