Product Description
A 1m Cat6 RJ45 patch lead built for short, fixed connections inside a cabinet or between adjacent equipment — the kind of link an installer needs between an NVR and a nearby PoE switch, or a router and a switch sitting on the same shelf.
Where this fits in a CCTV or network install
- NVR-to-switch patching — linking a CCTV recorder to a nearby PoE switch or router without excess cable to dress
- Cabinet and rack tidying — short jumps between adjacent devices where a long lead would just mean coiled slack
- General networking — routers, PCs, PS4 and similar devices needing a stable wired connection
Key specs
- Standard: Cat6, backward-compatible with Cat5e networks
- Length: 1 metre — suited to close-proximity connections only
- Connectors: gold-plated RJ45
- Build: designed to minimise electromagnetic interference for a stable link
- Finish: black sheath, rated for indoor and outdoor use
For CCTV deployments, this length works best inside or immediately beside the cabinet housing the NVR and PoE switch — for camera runs across a site, a longer Cat6 cable rated for that distance is the correct choice, not this one. Since it's backward-compatible with Cat5e, it can also patch into existing Cat5e infrastructure, though full Cat6 speed depends on the rest of the run matching the standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable long enough to run a CCTV camera to the NVR?
At 1 metre it's designed for close-proximity links, such as an NVR to a nearby PoE switch, not for full camera-to-recorder runs across a site.
Will it work on an existing Cat5e network?
Yes, Cat6 cable is backward-compatible with Cat5e, though you'll only see full Cat6 speed if the rest of the network run is also Cat6.
Is it suitable for outdoor use in a cabinet run?
The cable is rated for both indoor and outdoor use, making it suitable for cabinet or enclosure patching in a CCTV install.
