Lindy 1m Cat.6 S/FTP Network Cable, Grey

Lindy Cat.6 patch cables are manufactured and tested to meet the ISO 11801 specification. Designed with a snagless strain relief, the cables reduce the risk of connector latch damage during installation and removal. Gold-plated contacts provide reliable signal transmission across a range of network applications. Each cable is supplied in a polybag; multiple colour options are available for organised structured cabling in server racks or wall cabinets. The RJ45 connectors provide universal connectivity to computers and network devices such as routers, switches, network printers and NAS units. These Cat.6 patch cables are suitable for use in data centres, rack spaces, server rooms and network cabinets, as well as for security system and AV installations.

Advantages

Manufactured and tested to ISO 11801 standards, these Cat.6 patch cables ensure compliance with established cabling requirements. The snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during frequent plugging and unplugging, while gold-plated pins maintain signal integrity and reduce corrosion. Multiple colour options and polybag packaging support neat identification and installation within server cabinets, wall cabinets and racks. RJ45 compatibility ensures broad interoperability with common network hardware.

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device and the other to the computer or endpoint, ensuring the latch clicks into place. Route the cable through cable management channels or rack spaces to avoid strain and minimize interference. When removing, press the latch and pull the connector straight out to prevent damage to the plug and the device port. Choose colour-coded cables to simplify identification in multi-cable installations.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, select cable lengths that avoid excessive coil or tension and keep patch runs within recommended Cat.6 distance limits. Use shielded or properly routed unshielded cables where electromagnetic interference may affect signal quality.
