InLine Ultra-Slim Flat Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.6 Gigabit-Capable Black 3m

Flat InLine® Patch Cable Cat.6 Gigabit, 3 m long, designed for LAN data networks without U/UTP shielding. This ultra-flat, 4-pair twisted cable has a profile height of approximately 1 mm and is intended for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet connections between switches, routers, hubs, network cards, print servers and other active or passive network devices. The flat form factor allows routing behind furniture, skirting boards, door jambs or under carpets and supports improved air circulation and easier access to cables and sockets inside server or equipment racks.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat.6 performance suitable for Gigabit Ethernet with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Its ultra-flat construction reduces routing space and enables discreet installation in confined areas. The 4-pair twisted design maintains signal integrity while the low profile supports placement under floor coverings or along walls. Its 3 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop or rack-to-desk connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and hubs to devices
• Network cards and print servers in home or office networks
• Routing cables behind furniture, skirting boards or under carpets
• Use inside network racks to improve airflow and access

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network device (switch, router, hub or network card) and the other to the target device. Route the flat cable along the desired path — behind furniture, along skirting boards, under carpets or inside racks — taking care to avoid sharp bends. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For rack installations, position the cable to support airflow and easy access to ports.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and do not expose it to moisture or direct sunlight. Verify that connected devices support Gigabit speeds if Gigabit performance is required.
