Product Description
A 4m CAT6 RJ45 patch lead does one job: getting an IP camera, NVR or PC onto the network without a drop in link speed. This one is UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) construction with gold-plated connectors, in black, at a fixed 4-metre length.
Where this length fits
Four metres is a practical run for the last stretch of a CCTV install — from a wall-mounted NVR to a nearby patch panel, or from a desktop switch to a camera's PoE injector — rather than for long backbone runs across a building. For retail back-offices, small server cabinets, or a single-room office setup, it's usually enough without excess cable to dress and tie down.
Why UTP for CCTV and network runs
- CAT6/CAT5e rated — works with both standards, so it suits mixed-age network kit.
- UTP build minimises interference, which matters for stable video streaming and consistent data transfer on IP camera links.
- Gold-plated RJ45 connectors for a reliable, low-resistance connection at each end.
- Suits routers, PCs, PS4s and CCTV systems alike — one lead spec across office and install jobs.
For installers standardising a van stock, keeping a run of these alongside longer lengths covers the short jumper connections that come up on almost every job — NVR-to-switch, switch-to-patch-panel, or camera-to-injector where the camera sits close to its power point.

It's a fixed 4-metre length, suited to short runs such as NVR-to-switch or camera-to-injector connections.
Is it shielded or unshielded?
It uses UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) construction, designed to minimise interference for stable data transmission.
Can this be used for CCTV installs?
Yes, it's suited to connecting CCTV systems as well as routers, PCs and PS4s.
