Product Description
The RJ45-NETWORK-CABLE-CAT6-10M-BLUE is a 10-metre Cat6 patch lead built to carry high-speed network data between two RJ45 ports — router to switch, camera to NVR, PC to wall point.
What it's for
For CCTV installers, this length matters most when a PoE camera (power and data over one cable) sits well away from the recorder — over a doorway, across a garage, up on a soffit. Ten metres gives you the slack to route around a room or up a wall without a mid-run joint, which is always a weak point in a network cable.
Why Cat6 rather than an older cable
Cat6 is built for higher-bandwidth, higher-speed transmission than older standards, so it suits video streaming, large file transfers and multiple devices sharing one line without the connection stuttering.
Build
- UTP (unshielded twisted pair) construction — the twisted cores cut electromagnetic interference for a stable signal
- RJ45 connectors on both ends — the standard plug for network and PoE ports
- Blue jacket — useful for picking your network run out from power or coax cable in a crowded trunking or patch panel
Where it fits
Suits home networks, office LANs and CCTV runs alike — anywhere you need a dependable, ready-made lead rather than cutting and crimping your own.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this cable carry power to a PoE CCTV camera as well as data?
It's built to standard Cat6/RJ45 specification for network data; whether it also carries PoE power depends on your camera and NVR/injector supporting PoE over that connection.
Is 10 metres enough to reach a camera on an outside wall?
Ten metres gives a good amount of slack for routing round a room or up to a soffit-mounted camera without needing a joint partway along, which is worth avoiding on any network run.
Why is the cable blue rather than another colour?
It's simply for identification — a blue jacket makes it easy to pick your network run out from power or coax cabling in a crowded patch panel or trunking.
What does UTP mean and why does it matter?
UTP stands for unshielded twisted pair; the twisted cores inside reduce electromagnetic interference, helping keep the connection stable.
