UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 UTP LAN Cable 0.5m Black (UG-20158)
The UGREEN NW102 provides reliable high-speed network connectivity in a compact form factor. This Cat 6 cable offers superior performance for home and office networking applications.
Advanced Data Transfer Capabilities
The NW102 Cat 6 cable supports data transfer rates of up to 1 Gigabit per second (1000 Mbps) in standard installations. Additionally, the cable meets TIA/EIA 568-B.2 standards for Category 6 performance specifications. The internal structure includes:
- Four twisted pairs of 26 AWG copper conductors
- RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts
- Cross separator to minimize crosstalk between pairs
- 250 MHz bandwidth capacity
As a result, the UGREEN NW102 delivers consistent performance for data-intensive applications like video streaming, online gaming, and large file transfers.
Durable Construction
The NW102 features a robust design engineered for reliability and longevity:
- PVC outer jacket resistant to wear and environmental factors
- Strain relief boots to prevent connector damage
- Oxygen-free copper conductors for optimal signal integrity
- Snagless connector design for easier routing
These construction elements consequently ensure the cable maintains performance even with regular handling and reinstallation.
Compact Length and Versatility
At precisely 0.5 meters (19.7 inches), the UGREEN NW102 is ideal for short-distance connections. This compact length prevents excess cable clutter while providing sufficient reach for:
- Router to modem connections
- Desktop computer to wall outlet links
- Network switch to nearby devices
- TV to streaming box setups
Furthermore, the NW102’s standard RJ45 connectors ensure universal compatibility with network equipment including routers, modems, switches, gaming consoles, and network interface cards.
Quality Assurance
Each UGREEN NW102 cable undergoes comprehensive testing to verify performance:
- Channel testing for frequency response
- Near-end crosstalk (NEXT) verification
- Impedance and return loss measurements
- Physical construction inspection
These quality control measures therefore guarantee consistent performance across the entire production line.
