Rutenbeck 21600010 Network Cable 1 m Cat6a Grey

The Rutenbeck 21600010 1m Cat6a Grey networking cable is a short, shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable high-speed connections between network devices. With RJ-45 connectors on both ends and Cat6a performance, this 1‑metre cable supports high-bandwidth applications and is suited to compact installations where a short, neat cable run is required. The grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for office and home environments.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable provides enhanced bandwidth and improved crosstalk performance compared to Cat5e and Cat6, enabling stable data transfer for demanding applications. The molded RJ-45 plugs ensure consistent contact and reduce strain at termination points, while the short 1 m length minimizes excess cabling and potential signal degradation in patching scenarios. The cable's construction focuses on durability and reliable electrical characteristics for everyday network use.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert an RJ-45 plug into the network port of your device and the other end into the corresponding port on the switch, router, or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully seated until they click to establish contact. Use the 1 m length for close-proximity connections to avoid tension on ports and to maintain tidy cable management. For stacked devices or patch panels, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and protect the molded ends from repeated stress.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as power transformers and unshielded mains wiring. Avoid kinking or tightly coiling the cable; maintain gentle radii when routing to preserve signal integrity. Use the cable for short interconnects where 1 m length is sufficient and replace if connectors show wear or damage.
