Product Description
A 1m Cat6 U/UTP patch lead for the short, fixed jumps that tidy up an install rather than the long camera runs. RJ45 male connectors at both ends, gold-plated copper alloy pins in a polycarbonate housing, and a 24AWG copper conductor rated to 250MHz bandwidth.
Where it fits on a job
On CCTV and network installs, 1m leads like this get used for:
- NVR-to-switch or NVR-to-router jumps inside a cabinet or rack
- Patch panel to switch connections where the run is measured in centimetres, not metres
- Tidying a rack or cabinet where slack cable would otherwise be coiled and zip-tied
Because it's U/UTP (unshielded), route it away from mains cabling or motor/PSU wiring to avoid interference — there's no shield here to absorb EMI.
Key specs
- Type: Cat.6, U/UTP, 250MHz supported bandwidth
- Attenuation: 32.8dB/100m @250MHz
- Conductor: Copper, 24AWG

Procurement note
White finishes blend into patch panels and light-coloured trunking, useful where cable runs are visible in comms cabinets or office racks. Specify by length and colour when ordering multiples for a first-fix or panel build, since this is the 1m variant only.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is this 1m Cat6 cable best used for on a CCTV install?
It's a short patch lead, best suited to NVR-to-switch, router, or patch panel jumps inside a cabinet rather than long camera runs.
Is this cable shielded?
No, it's U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair), so it should be routed clear of mains or motor cabling to avoid interference.
What bandwidth does it support?
It's rated to 250MHz, in line with Cat.6 specification, with attenuation of 32.8dB/100m at that frequency.
What connectors does it use?
RJ45 male connectors at both ends, with gold-plated copper alloy pins in a polycarbonate housing.
