InLine Flat Patch Cable U/FTP Cat.6A Black 1.5m

The InLine Flat Patch Cable U/FTP Cat.6A black 1.5m is a slim networking cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections up to Cat6A performance. It measures 1.5 metres in length and is finished in black, featuring RJ-45 connectors on both ends and U/FTP shielding to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. The flat profile allows routing in tight spaces and under carpets or along skirting boards where a round cable might be impractical.

Advantages

The U/FTP Cat.6A construction provides improved signal integrity and protection against interference compared with unshielded alternatives, helping to maintain stable gigabit and 10-gigabit network links where shielding is beneficial. The flat design simplifies installation in confined pathways and presents a low-profile appearance in visible installations. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with network devices, patch panels and switches without additional adapters.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting routers, switches and network ports in home and office LANs
• Patch connections between wall outlets and network equipment
• Deployments requiring low-profile cabling under desks, along skirtings or behind equipment
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A (augmented)
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foiled pairs)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Profile: Flat cable design
• Colour: Black

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector securely into the corresponding network port until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are fully seated on the device and that cable routing does not place sharp bends or excessive strain on the connectors. For permanent or long-term installations, check that the flat cable is not pinched by furniture or doors, and avoid tight wraps that could damage the internal pairs.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for network segments that require Cat.6A performance or improved shielding against interference. Keep the cable length within recommended distances for Ethernet standards, avoid kinking the flat cable, and install connectors firmly to maintain a reliable link.
