StarTech.com N6PAT50CMWHS Cat6 Ethernet Cable, UTP, 50 cm, White Low Smoke Zero Halogen

This ethernet cable is a short patch lead designed for local network connections in professional environments. It links devices within control cabinets, test rigs or bench setups where a compact, flexible Cat6 connection is required. The cable uses stranded copper conductors and an unshielded twisted-pair configuration to deliver the performance expected from Cat6 links while maintaining a low-emission jacket suitable for indoor installations.

• Stranded copper conductors deliver enhanced flexibility for frequent movement
• UTP construction minimises bulk for neat cable routing in confined spaces
• Low smoke zero halogen jacket reduces toxic fumes in enclosed areas
• 28AWG conductor gauge supports Compact termination and tight bends
• RoHS-approved materials meet environmental restriction requirements
• Operating range 10-60°C maintains signal integrity across industrial temperatures

• Suitable for short interconnects inside automation control panels
• Ideal for connections between test instruments and measurement rigs
• Used with rack-mounted switches for brief patching tasks
• Can be used for temporary network set-ups during commissioning
• Suitable for wiring in electronics assembly benches

It uses unshielded twisted pairs which maintain differential signalling benefits while reducing cable stiffness compared with shielded variants.

The low smoke zero halogen jacket limits corrosive and toxic emissions in case of fire, improving safety in enclosed or populated areas.

The stranded conductor construction increases flexibility and reduces strain at terminations during frequent movement.

The cable has a Compact outside diameter of 3.6mm for routing through tight spaces.
