Tecline U/UTP Cat6 2m Network Cable

The Tecline U/UTP Cat6 2m networking cable is a 2-metre Ethernet patch cable designed for structured cabling and device connections in small office and home networks. Built to Cat6 standard, it supports higher data rates and improved signal integrity compared with earlier categories. The cable uses U/UTP shielding (overall foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs) and is fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Its bright yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in multi-cable installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable combines the standardized performance of Category 6 with an overall foil shield to reduce external electromagnetic interference. The RJ-45 connectors ensure broad compatibility with switches, routers, network interface cards and patch panels. At 2 metres length the cable provides a convenient balance between reach and cable management for desktop connections and short inter-rack patching. The yellow jacket simplifies tracing and reduces the chance of accidental disconnection during maintenance.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, printers or IP phones to a local switch or router
• Patch connections in small server cabinets or network racks
• Temporary or permanent cabling for home and office Ethernet networks
• Environments where cable identification is beneficial (color-coded networks)

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 2 m
• Shielding: U/UTP (overall foil shield, individual pairs unshielded)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Conductor type: twisted pairs (copper)
• Jacket color: yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet port of your device and the other to the port on your switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to maintain a reliable physical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for short to medium length connections where improved noise rejection is required compared with unshielded Cat5e cables. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for long distances and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show visible damage. For best performance in high-density or high-interference environments consider shielded pair alternatives if individual-pair shielding is needed.
