Lindy 0.5m Cat.6 U/UTP Network Cable, Blue

Network Cable Lindy 0.5m RJ-45 Cat6 Blue is a Cat.6 U/UTP LSZH cable with a length of 0.5 m, designed for data transfer at operating frequencies up to 250 MHz. The cable supports Ethernet standards up to 1GBase-T and is manufactured and tested according to ISO/IEC 11801. It features RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and a snagless strain relief design; the cable is provided in a protective polybag.

Advantages

The unshielded U/UTP Cat.6 construction delivers Gigabit Ethernet performance through optimized electrical parameters while avoiding additional shielding. Gold-plated contacts provide reliable, corrosion-resistant connections for long-term use. The snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during installation and removal, and the LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections (1GBase-T)
• Home and office network patching and short interconnects
• Connections between switches, routers and end devices over short distances (0.5 m)

Key specifications

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on your network devices (switch, router, NIC). Ensure the connector clicks into place to confirm secure contact. Use this 0.5 m patch cable for short links and device-to-device connections within racks or on desktops. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or close to large sources of electromagnetic interference. Use the cable for short patching runs and keep bend radius gentle; replace if connectors or cable jacket show visible damage.
