Product Information

Full details

The Cablenet 2m Cat6 RJ45 patch lead is designed for IT professionals and home office users requiring reliable, high-speed network connectivity. Engineered to meet ISO11801 Class D+ and ANSI/EIA/TIA standards, this cable provides stable performance for data-intensive applications and PoE++ environments. A key benefit is its durable, flush-moulded boot design, which makes it ideal for high-density patching in switches and server racks, though users should note that the PVC jacket is intended for indoor use only.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cable compatible with Cat5e devices?

Yes, Cat6 cables are backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networking equipment.

Can I use this cable for Gigabit internet?

Yes, Cat6 is specifically rated for Gigabit Ethernet speeds and beyond, making it ideal for high-speed home and office internet.

Does this cable support shielded applications?

No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable. It is designed for standard environments without high levels of electromagnetic interference.

What does the 24AWG rating mean?

AWG stands for American Wire Gauge; 24AWG is the standard thickness for patch leads, providing a good balance between flexibility and signal performance.

Is the cable plenum-rated?

This cable features a standard PVC jacket; it is not specifically plenum-rated for use in air-handling spaces.

Troubleshooting

No network connection detected

Check that the connector is fully inserted and the latch has clicked into place on both the device and the switch/wall port.

Intermittent data drops

Inspect the cable length for visible kinks, sharp bends, or physical damage to the PVC jacket; replace if damage is found.

PoE device not powering on

Verify that your switch or power injector supports PoE++ and that the cable is connected directly without daisy-chaining multiple patch leads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets industry standards for high-speed network reliability
  • Supports PoE++ applications for versatile hardware setups
  • Flush-moulded design is ideal for crowded server cabinets
  • Durable stranded copper core provides excellent flexibility

Cons

  • PVC jacketing is not suitable for harsh outdoor conditions
  • Unshielded (U/UTP) design may be prone to interference in high-EMI environments
  • Fixed 2m length may require cable management for shorter runs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply plug the RJ45 male connector into your network device until you hear a clear 'click.' For optimal performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or pinching it under furniture. When routing the cable, ensure it is kept away from electrical power lines to prevent electromagnetic interference. Because this is a U/UTP cable, it is best suited for structured indoor cabling. To maintain the cable, periodically inspect the moulded boot for cracks and ensure the RJ45 pins remain free of dust or debris. If the cable is no longer needed, it can be coiled loosely—avoid tight, circular wrapping to preserve the internal conductor integrity.
