Microconnect UTP603B Network Cable Blue 3 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP603B is a 3 m RJ-45 Cat6 UTP networking cable in blue, designed for connecting network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable meets Cat6 requirements and is tested up to 250 MHz, supporting data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and maintaining backward compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. Reinforced snaggles (boots) protect the connector latch during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides reliable, high-frequency performance up to 250 MHz while remaining compatible with older Cat5e and Cat5 equipment. Its 3 m length suits short runs between devices, and the UTP construction supports typical office and home networking and entertainment setups. Integrated boots reduce the risk of connector damage during routing and installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Home and small office Ethernet networks
• Connecting computers, NAS or media devices to local networks
• Short patch runs in racks or workstations

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, modem or router) and the other into the destination port such as a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place and avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling on the cable. For best performance, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and do not exceed recommended run lengths for structured cabling.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 cable for short to medium Ethernet connections within offices, server racks or home setups. For longer permanent installations or environments with high interference, consider shielded cable types or structured cabling installed through conduit.
