RS PRO Cat6 Ethernet Cable 0.5m F/UTP Grey RJ45 Male to Male Low Smoke Zero Halogen 556-966

The RS PRO Cat6 Ethernet Cable, model 556-966, is a professional-grade patch lead designed for high-performance data communication in both commercial and industrial settings. This cable features a 0.5 meter length and is constructed with full Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair (F/UTP) shielding, which significantly reduces electromagnetic interference and ensures stable signal transmission across network devices.

Designed with Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) material, the cable sheath minimizes the emission of toxic smoke and fumes in the event of fire, making it ideal for use in enclosed public spaces, offices, and sensitive facilities where safety compliance is critical. The grey jacket is durable and helps with system color coding and organization.

Both ends of the cable are terminated with standard RJ45 male connectors, making installation quick and efficient for connecting computers, network switches, patch panels, and routers. The Cat6 classification ensures support for advanced Ethernet protocols, including gigabit and 10-gigabit networks, facilitating reliable and high-speed data transfer essential for modern IT infrastructures.

This cable adheres to strict international standards including ISO/IEC 11801 (2nd Edition), IEC 61935-2, and EC 1907/2006. It is also RoHS compliant, a testament to its safety and environmental responsibility. The voltage rating of 30V is suitable for standard Ethernet transmissions.

Ideal for network cabinets, server rooms, desktop deployments, and structured cabling in commercial buildings, the RS PRO 556-966 Cat6 patch cable delivers both flexibility and kink resistance thanks to its copper strand construction. Its compact 0.5m length is well-suited for neat, short-distance connections within managed racks or between adjacent devices, minimizing excess cable clutter.

Typical applications include use in data centers, industrial automation, educational networks, and general office environments where secure, high-quality Ethernet connectivity is required.
