FAQs

What is the main advantage of this slim cable?

The primary advantage is its ultra-slim 2.8mm outer diameter, which makes it ideal for high-density networking environments and simplifies cable management in tight spaces.

Can I use this cable for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

No, this cable is not recommended for PoE applications because its 32 AWG wire size is too thin to safely handle the power requirements.

What network speeds does this cable support?

This cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds (10/100/1000 Mbps) and is rated to Cat6 standards, capable of handling frequencies up to 250 MHz.

What devices can I connect with this cable?

You can connect devices such as PCs, laptops, games consoles, Smart TVs, routers, switches, and any other device with an RJ-45 Ethernet port.

How long is the cable?

The cable length is 1 meter.

What type of shielding does the cable have?

It features U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) shielding.

Is this cable suitable for long-distance runs?

With a length of 1 meter, it is best suited for short connections. For longer runs, thicker gauge cables might be more appropriate depending on network requirements and potential interference.

Troubleshooting

No internet connection

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the correct ports. Check if the device's network adapter is enabled. Try a different network cable to rule out a cable fault.

Slow internet speeds

Verify the cable is connected to a Gigabit Ethernet port on both the device and the network equipment. Ensure the cable is not damaged or kinked. Test the connection with a known-good, shorter cable if possible. Restart your router and modem.

Device not detected by the network

Check that the RJ-45 connectors are fully seated. Inspect the cable for any visible damage. Try connecting the device using a different port on your router or switch.
