DeLOCK RJ45 Flat Network Cable Cat.6A 5m Blue

The DeLOCK RJ45 Flat Cat.6A network cable is a 5 m blue patch cable designed for connecting networking devices such as a NIC to a switch or a patch panel. It meets the Cat.6A standard for high-speed data transmission and features U/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. The cable's flat, super-flexible construction makes it suitable for installation in tight spaces like under carpets, along skirting boards or behind wallpaper.

Advantages

The flat design and flexible sheath allow the cable to be routed in confined spaces and resist strain during installation. A braided jacket increases resistance to abrasion and helps prevent kinks and breaks, improving long-term durability. U/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference while gold-plated contacts ensure reliable connectivity.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer NIC to a switch or router
• Patching between a wall plate/patch panel and network device
• Routing under carpets, along skirting boards or behind wallpaper
• Home and small office Ethernet installations requiring Cat.6A performance

How to use

Plug one gold-plated RJ45 connector into the network interface card (NIC) or device port and the other into the switch, router or patch panel port. Route the flat cable along the desired path, slipping it under carpets or along skirting boards as needed. Avoid sharp bends at the connector ends and do not crease the cable repeatedly to maintain performance and mechanical integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat.6A cable for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet where short to medium cable runs are required. Keep the cable away from strong sources of EMI and avoid excessive tension; secure with low-pressure clips or tape when routing under carpets.
