FAQs

Is this cable shielded?

No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable, which is the standard for most home and office network installations.

Can I use this for Gigabit internet?

Yes, Cat6 cabling is fully capable of supporting Gigabit (1000Mbps) speeds and beyond.

What is the AWG of the wire?

This cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors.

Is the cable suitable for outdoor use?

This cable is designed for indoor use. The PVC jacket is not rated for prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh outdoor weather conditions.

Will this work with my gaming console?

Yes, it is compatible with any device equipped with a standard RJ45 Ethernet port, including gaming consoles, PCs, and smart TVs.

Troubleshooting

No network connection detected

Ensure the RJ45 plugs are fully seated in the ports until you hear a distinct click. Check that both the host device and the network switch are powered on.

Slow network speeds

Verify that there are no sharp bends or kinks in the cable length and ensure it is not running parallel to high-voltage power lines that could cause interference.

PoE device not powering on

Confirm that your network switch or injector is configured to support the specific PoE++ (4PPoE) power class required by your device.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets industry standards for high-speed networking
  • Supports PoE++ applications
  • High-quality stranded copper core for flexibility
  • Flush moulded boot prevents connector damage
  • Reliable connection for long-distance data transmission

Cons

  • Fixed 4-meter length is not adjustable
  • Unshielded U/UTP design is susceptible to high electromagnetic interference in industrial environments
  • PVC jacket is less flexible than LSZH alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure peak performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Installation: Avoid bending the cable at sharp angles, as this can damage the internal copper conductors. While the cable is flexible, maintain a reasonable bend radius.
  2. Compatibility: This cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards, and compatible with all standard RJ45 networking hardware including routers, switches, and modems.
  3. Maintenance: Periodically check that the RJ45 plugs are clicked firmly into their ports. Keep the connectors clean of dust or debris using a dry, non-abrasive cloth if necessary.
  4. Storage: If the cable is not in use, coil it loosely in a circular motion to avoid kinking the internal wiring.
