UGREEN 50172 0.5m Cat 6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

UGREEN 50172 is a 0.5 m black Cat 6 Ethernet patch cable with U/UTP construction and RJ45 male connectors at both ends. UGREEN lists up to 1Gbps data rate and 250MHz bandwidth. The build uses pure-copper conductors (AWG not published), RJ45 male connectors with eight gold-plated contacts, metal shells and moulded latch guards, and a flat black cable (width/thickness not published). The 0.5 m reach is intended for very close ports, a compact switch panel or a short desk connection where excess slack would be inconvenient.

Key features

Cat 6 performance ceiling

UGREEN states up to 1Gbps and 250MHz. The figure describes cable capability with compatible equipment, not guaranteed internet or file-transfer speed.

U/UTP construction

U/UTP means neither an overall cable screen nor foil around the individual twisted pairs is specified. Pair twisting is the signal-control method; this is an unshielded patch cable.

pure copper

The verified construction uses pure-copper conductors (AWG not published); conductor claims are kept tied to this exact SKU or documented series.

0.5 m exact reach

The fixed 0.5 m length is a selection detail, not an estimate. Plan the route before ordering and leave gentle slack at both ports.

Category, shielding and physical build

The Cat 6 rating is listed at up to 1Gbps and 250MHz. This flat U/UTP family is designed for compact everyday patching; it must not be described as shielded merely because its connectors have metal shells.

U/UTP means neither an overall cable screen nor foil around the individual twisted pairs is specified. Pair twisting is the signal-control method; this is an unshielded patch cable.

The physical profile matters independently of the category number. This product is flat black cable (width/thickness not published); connector protection, bend behaviour and space behind equipment can differ from flat, thick, unbraided or differently shielded cables.

Use scenarios

Router, switch or wall outlet

Bridge two nearby RJ45 points across the measured 0.5 m route, while keeping a small service loop at the equipment.

Desktop and workstation

Connect a desktop PC, Ethernet-equipped laptop, compatible dock, network printer or local workstation to wired network equipment.

TV and console

Use with a smart TV, streaming box, PlayStation, Xbox or other entertainment device that has a standard RJ45 LAN port.

NAS and local transfers

Link compatible NAS, server, access point or other RJ45 equipment; the effective rate still depends on ports, storage, protocols and the rest of the path.

Setup and usability guidance

  1. Measure the real path: follow furniture and corners, allow a service loop and confirm the 0.5 m cable will reach without tension.
  2. Check both endpoints: each side needs a standard RJ45 Ethernet socket, or a separately purchased Ethernet adapter that supports the intended link.
  3. Route gently: use broad curves, keep the cable away from sharp edges and avoid pinch points, chair wheels, doors, staples and tight cable ties.
  4. Seat each plug straight: align the latch, push until the connector is fully seated and avoid sideways load on the socket.
  5. Verify the link: check device or switch indicators, then confirm the negotiated network rate before measuring real transfers.
  6. Test in stages: when a problem appears, bypass couplers, wall cabling and extra switches so the cable can be tested between known-good ports.

Compatible devices and systems

Compatibility is based on standard RJ45 Ethernet hardware rather than a particular operating-system brand.

Network equipment

Routers, broadband gateways with LAN ports, Ethernet switches, patch panels, wall outlets and compatible wireless access points.

Computers and storage

Desktop PCs, servers, NAS units and laptops with RJ45, plus suitable USB/USB-C Ethernet adapters or docks purchased separately.

Entertainment equipment

Smart TVs, media players, PlayStation and Xbox consoles that provide a standard RJ45 network port.

Software and drivers

The passive cable needs no driver. The computer, console, adapter or dock uses its own Ethernet hardware, operating-system support and network settings.

What this product does

  • Creates one passive RJ45-to-RJ45 wired Ethernet path over the exact 0.5 m cable length.
  • Provides the documented Cat 6 cable ceiling of up to 1Gbps and 250MHz when the complete link supports it.
  • Uses U/UTP construction, pure-copper conductors (AWG not published) and RJ45 male connectors with eight gold-plated contacts, metal shells and moulded latch guards.
  • Works without a separate power supply, cable driver or account sign-in.
  • Lets compatible devices use their existing Ethernet networking functions through a physical cable path.

What this product does not do

  • It does not create internet service, Wi-Fi coverage, IP addresses or routing, and it does not replace a modem, router, switch or network adapter.
  • It does not plug directly into USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, DisplayPort or the smaller telephone-style RJ11 socket.
  • It does not make slower ports, storage, processors, switches, wall cabling or an internet plan operate at the cable’s maximum rating.
  • It is not described here as proof of PoE class, outdoor exposure, direct burial, plenum, riser or other in-wall installation approval.

What to do

Match exact SKU

Choose 50172 only when the documented 0.5 m, Cat 6, U/UTP and flat U/UTP build match the intended route.

Match the complete network

Check the link rating of both ports, every intermediate switch or adapter, and any wall cabling before expecting the listed 1Gbps ceiling.

Leave a service loop

Keep gentle slack near each device so moving equipment does not pull the locking tab or place leverage on an RJ45 socket.

Test locally first

Check negotiated link rate and a local device-to-device transfer before using an internet speed test to judge the cable.

What not to do

Do not force a connector

RJ45 is wider than RJ11 and unrelated to USB. Stop if the plug does not align and inspect the socket instead of applying pressure.

Do not crush or sharply fold

Avoid tight bends, furniture legs, closed doors, chair wheels, staples and overtightened ties that can deform pairs or damage the jacket.

Do not pull on the cable body

Press the latch and hold the moulded plug when disconnecting. Pulling the cable or twisting the socket can damage both cable and equipment.

Do not assume installation ratings

Category and shielding labels alone do not establish PoE current, outdoor, wet-location or concealed-building approval. Verify those requirements separately.

Warnings and limitations

End-to-end limit: 1Gbps is a cable maximum; the slowest port, adapter, switch, wall link, device, storage or service controls the result.

Shielding: U/UTP means neither an overall cable screen nor foil around the individual twisted pairs is specified. Pair twisting is the signal-control method; this is an unshielded patch cable.

Environment and power: Keep connectors dry. No PoE class, voltage/current limit, outdoor rating, direct-burial approval or in-wall fire class is established for this exact SKU.

Damage: replace a cable with a cracked plug, unreliable latch, crushed jacket or exposed internal material.

Performance and troubleshooting

No link

Reseat both ends, check port indicators and test known-good ports with a known-good cable.

Lower negotiated rate

Check both ports, switches, adapters, wall links and couplers; one slower segment limits the link.

Connection drops

Remove pressure and tight bends, inspect both latches, then test a direct route away from strong electrical noise.

Internet remains slow

Compare a local transfer with an internet test. The ISP, remote server, congestion or device may be the limit.

Product-specific FAQ

What is the exact length of UGREEN 50172?

SKU 50172 is the 0.5 m version. Measure corners and leave gentle slack so neither RJ45 port is under tension.

What speed and bandwidth are stated for SKU 50172?

UGREEN lists up to 1Gbps and 250MHz. The slowest device or cable segment sets the real result.

What does U/UTP mean on this cable?

It has twisted pairs with no pair foil and no overall cable screen. It is unshielded.

What conductor and gauge are verified?

UGREEN material identifies pure-copper conductors (AWG not published). Match the SKU because related cables can differ.

Is this cable flat or round?

It is a flat black cable (width/thickness not published). Do not substitute a visually similar flat or round family.

Which devices can it connect?

It links two standard RJ45 Ethernet ports, such as a router, switch, PC, NAS, console or smart TV port.

Will it plug directly into a USB-C-only laptop?

No. A computer without RJ45 needs a suitable USB-C or USB Ethernet adapter or dock.

Is it suitable for a console or smart TV?

Yes, when the device has RJ45 LAN. The device port and network still limit speed and online performance.

Will this cable make my network run at 1Gbps?

No. 1 gigabit per second is the cable ceiling; endpoints, switches, adapters, storage and other links must also support the mode.

Can I assume PoE, outdoor or in-wall approval?

No PoE class, voltage/current limit, outdoor rating or in-wall fire class is established for this exact SKU. Verify any powered or building-installation requirement separately.

What is included in the package?

1 × UGREEN 50172 0.5 m Cat 6 RJ45 Ethernet patch cable. No other item is verified.
