InLine Patch cable flat, U/FTP, Cat.6A, TPE halogen-free, black, 0.5m

The InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.6A TPE halogen-free black 0.5m is a short, flat network cable designed for reliable high-speed connections in compact environments. With Cat.6A compliance and U/FTP shielding, the cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short runs while minimizing crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides mechanical flexibility and reduced smoke/toxic gas emission in case of fire. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 plugs featuring gold-plated contacts to maintain stable conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Advantages

The flat profile allows the cable to be routed neatly under carpets, along walls, or through tight gaps, reducing strain on connectors and saving space. U/FTP shielding around each pair plus an overall foil layer improves signal integrity in environments with nearby power lines or electronic equipment. The halogen-free TPE sheath increases safety in enclosed spaces and offers durable bending performance for frequent installation changes. Short 0.5 m length is convenient for patching between adjacent ports in patch panels, switches, or wall outlets.

Suitable for

• Short-distance patching between switches, patch panels, and wall sockets
• Desk-level connections behind networked workstations or small office equipment
• Concealed routing under flooring or along skirting boards where a low-profile cable is needed
• High-density rack installations requiring space-efficient cabling

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A — supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances
• Shielding: U/FTP (individually shielded pairs with overall foil)
• Cable jacket: halogen-free TPE, flat profile
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Black

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port on your switch, router, or patch panel and the other plug to the device or adjacent port. Ensure plugs are fully inserted until the latch engages to secure the connection. The flat design allows you to route the cable along edges or beneath carpets; avoid tight kinks and maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for Ethernet cables to preserve performance. For best results, keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m flat Cat.6A cable for short, high-speed connections where space is limited. For long-distance links or environments with extreme EMI, select appropriately rated longer cables or additional shielding solutions. Inspect connectors periodically for dust or damage and replace the cable if the jacket is compromised.
