Netwerkkabel VALUE 15m UTP Cat.6a

The VALUE 15m UTP Cat.6a networking cable provides a 15-metre connection designed to meet Cat6a performance requirements. It uses U/UTP construction with individually insulated conductors inside an unshielded outer jacket and terminates in RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to maintain consistent signal quality. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is finished in white for unobtrusive installation in office, home or data centre environments.

Advantages

This Cat.6a cable delivers higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with earlier categories, enabling reliable 10 Gbit/s Ethernet over shorter runs while maintaining backward compatibility with Cat5e and Cat6 equipment. The U/UTP construction balances flexibility and electrical characteristics for straightforward routing and installation. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs reduce contact resistance and corrosion risk, helping ensure stable connections over time. The standard 15 m length accommodates mid-range cable runs without additional patching or splices.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s Ethernet connections in offices and small server rooms
• High-speed home networks for streaming and gaming
• Patch cabling between wall outlets and network switches
• Temporary or permanent runs where a 15 m cable length is required

How to use

Route the VALUE 15m UTP Cat.6a cable between network devices ensuring the cable is not excessively bent or kinked; maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius to preserve signal integrity. Insert RJ-45 plugs firmly into compatible Ethernet ports on computers, switches, routers or patch panels until the latch clicks. For in-wall or permanent installations, check local regulations and consider using conduit or cable management to protect the cable. Test the connection with a network tester or by verifying link speed and stability after installation.

Recommendations

Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines for long distances to reduce potential electromagnetic interference. For best performance at 10 Gbit/s, keep individual run lengths within recommended limits for Cat6a and avoid tight bundling of multiple cables. Store unused cable coiled with gentle loops and protect exposed connectors from dust and moisture.
