Ubiquiti U-CABLE-PATCH-2M-RJ45-BK Cat6 Patch Cable
Overview
The U-CABLE-PATCH-2M-RJ45-BK is a 2-meter Cat6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors designed for network infrastructure deployments. This length solves the common wiring problem between network access points and switches, PoE injectors, and wall-mounted endpoints where a 2m run fits standard office grid spacing or rack-to-wall distances without excess slack. The black jacket integrates cleanly into professional installations and matches standard data-center cable management aesthetics.
Compatibility
Purpose-built for Ubiquiti UniFi ecosystem — compatible with UniFi switches, access points (UAP, UAP-AC, U6 series), and any standard RJ45-terminated network device. PoE-rated, so it carries both data and power (802.3af/at/bt) without degradation across the 2-meter span. Works with any Gigabit or multi-Gig switch port where Cat6 rating is acceptable; no special drivers or firmware required. If you're running UniFi PoE+ access points or enterprise switches, this cable meets the electrical and data requirements without derating.
Installation Notes
Cat6 certification means the cable handles up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet if your infrastructure supports it, though most UniFi access points and switches operate at 1 Gigabit or 2.5 Gigabit. The 2-meter length is fixed — measure your run before ordering to ensure no stretching or excess coiling, which can degrade signal integrity in longer runs. Standard RJ45 termination requires no special tools beyond a standard Ethernet jack punch-down tool if reconfiguration is needed. Keep away from high-current power lines and electrical conduit to avoid induced noise — route through separate cable trays where possible.
