InLine Patch Cable Flat, U/FTP, Cat.6A, TPE Halogen-Free, Grey, 20 m

The InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.6A TPE halogen-free grey 20m is a 20-metre flat network cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed with U/FTP shielding and Cat.6A performance properties, the cable supports demanding data transmission while the halogen-free TPE jacket reduces harmful emissions in case of fire. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors in a slim flat profile that helps route the cable neatly along walls, under carpets or behind furniture.

Advantages

The U/FTP shielding around individual pairs combined with an overall cable design improves resistance to electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, which supports stable high-speed data transfer. The flat design simplifies installation in tight spaces and enables more discreet cable routing. The halogen-free TPE material provides a non-corrosive jacket that is safer for indoor environments. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with switches, routers, PCs and other Ethernet-enabled devices.

Suitable for

• Home networks and multimedia streaming where a long, discreet cable run is needed
• Office desktop connections between wall ports and network devices
• Structured cabling installations requiring Cat.6A performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short to medium distances
• Environments where reduced emissions from cable jackets are preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6A (supports up to 10 Gbps in suitable conditions)
• Shielding: U/FTP (each pair foil-shielded with overall protection)
• Length: 20 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Jacket material: Halogen-free TPE
• Colour: Grey
• Form factor: Flat cable profile for low-height routing

How to use

Uncoil the cable and position the flat profile along the desired routing path, keeping bends gentle to avoid kinking. Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (for example a router, switch or PC) and the other connector into the corresponding port. Verify the network link and speed using the connected devices. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or close to strong sources of electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance, keep total channel length and intermediate connections within structured cabling limits, and ensure connectors and patch panels used match Cat.6A specifications. Use the flat design to guide the cable under carpets or along skirtings where permitted, and avoid sharp folds or sustained compression that could deform the conductor geometry.
