UGREEN Cat6 UTP Ethernet Cable 3m Black (NW102)
The UGREEN NW102 Cat6 cable delivers reliable high-speed networking in a versatile 3-meter length. This Ethernet cable combines performance specifications with durable construction for various connectivity needs.
High-Performance Data Transfer
The NW102 Cat6 cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gigabit per second (1000 Mbps) with bandwidth capacity of 250 MHz. The internal construction features:
- Four twisted pairs of 26 AWG bare copper conductors
- RJ45 connectors with 50-microinch gold-plated contacts
- Cross separator to minimize crosstalk between wire pairs
- Precise twisting ratios for optimal signal integrity
As a result, the UGREEN NW102 handles demanding applications including 4K video streaming, online gaming, server access, and large file transfers with minimal packet loss or latency issues.
Durable Construction
The NW102 incorporates several design elements focused on longevity and reliability:
- Flexible yet robust PVC outer jacket resistant to wear
- Reinforced strain relief boots to prevent connector damage
- Snagless connector design for easier routing through cable management systems
- Oxygen-free copper conductors for consistent signal transmission
These features consequently protect the cable from physical stress during installation and regular use, extending its operational lifespan.
Practical Length and Versatility
At 3 meters (9.8 feet), the UGREEN NW102 provides sufficient reach for numerous networking scenarios:
- Connecting desktop computers to wall outlets or routers
- Linking entertainment systems to network equipment
- Establishing connections between devices in small to medium-sized rooms
- Creating flexible networking options in office environments
Furthermore, the standard RJ45 connectors ensure universal compatibility with networking equipment including routers, modems, switches, computers, gaming consoles, and smart TVs.
Quality Assurance
Each UGREEN NW102 cable undergoes comprehensive testing to verify performance:
- Channel testing across the full frequency range
- Near-end crosstalk (NEXT) verification
- Return loss and impedance measurements
- Physical construction quality inspection
These quality control measures therefore ensure consistent performance across all production units.
