InLine Patch Cable Flat, U/FTP, Cat.6A, TPE Halogen-Free, Black, 10 m

The InLine flat patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.6A TPE halogen-free black 10m is a 10-metre network cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in home and office environments. The cable uses U/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain stable signal integrity across Cat.6A bandwidths. The flat design minimizes space usage under carpets, along skirting boards and behind furniture, while RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure compatibility with routers, switches, patch panels and network devices. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides a flexible, low-smoke alternative to standard PVC sheathing for safer indoor installations.

Advantages

The flat U/FTP construction delivers enhanced protection against crosstalk and external noise compared to unshielded cables, supporting higher data rates and reliable connections. The flat profile simplifies routing in confined spaces and reduces visible cable bulk. Halogen-free TPE material increases safety in case of fire by emitting less toxic smoke and corrosive gases, and the black outer jacket offers a neutral, unobtrusive appearance suitable for professional and residential setups.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections between PCs, switches, routers and patch panels
• Office and home network installations where space-saving cable routing is required
• Environments needing reduced electromagnetic interference for stable high-speed data transmission
• Installations where halogen-free materials are preferred for safety

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6A
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foiled pairs)
• Length: 10 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Jacket material: halogen-free TPE
• Outer colour: black
• Flat cable profile for low-profile routing

How to use

Uncoil the cable and connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device and the other to the corresponding port on your switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure mechanical and electrical connection. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends at the connector ends and keep the cable separated from strong sources of electromagnetic interference when possible. The flat design allows routing under carpets or along edges; secure the cable with low-profile clips or adhesive tape if needed.

Recommendations

For consistent Cat.6A performance, maintain recommended bend radius and avoid repeated sharp folds. Use in-line cable management to prevent strain on connectors and to preserve shielding effectiveness. Where safety standards require, select halogen-free cabling for indoor installations to reduce harmful emissions in case of fire.
