UGREEN 3M Cat 6 Flat Gigabit Ethernet Cable
Build a fast, stable and neatly organised wired network with the UGREEN NW101. This 3-metre Cat 6 U/UTP patch cable combines up to 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet, 250MHz channel bandwidth, pure-copper conductors, four twisted pairs, gold-plated RJ45 contacts and a slim flat profile for home, office, gaming and entertainment networks.

Cable Length
Male-to-Male Patch Cable
Up to 1000Mbps for Work, Streaming, Gaming and File Transfers
Connect a Gigabit-capable router, switch or network outlet to a computer, smart television, gaming console, NAS, printer or other Ethernet device. A wired connection can provide greater consistency than congested or weak Wi-Fi, particularly for large downloads, online meetings, streaming and network storage.
Office Work
Create a stable network connection for cloud applications, video meetings and file access.
Entertainment
Connect compatible smart TVs, streaming boxes and media players to a wired network.
Gaming
Use Ethernet with compatible PCs and consoles for a consistent local network connection.
250MHz Channel Bandwidth with Four Twisted Pairs
The cable uses four twisted conductor pairs to carry Ethernet signals while helping control pair-to-pair crosstalk. Cat 6 performance supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T Ethernet connections with compatible network hardware.
Designed for Lower Resistance and Stable Signal Transmission
Pure-copper conductors provide strong electrical conductivity and are intended to minimise avoidable signal loss across the cable’s three-metre length. The twisted-pair arrangement supports consistent Gigabit Ethernet performance in compatible network installations.
Construction Highlights
- Pure-copper signal conductors
- Four twisted Ethernet pairs
- U/UTP unshielded construction
- Flexible black outer jacket
- Flat cable profile
- Reinforced moulded connector ends
Route the Cable Neatly along Walls, Furniture and Tight Spaces
The flat cable profile is easier to organise than many conventional round network cables. It can follow skirting boards, desk edges and furniture contours to create a cleaner home or office network installation.
Along Walls
Route the slim cable beside skirting boards or suitable cable-management channels.
Behind Furniture
Pass through suitable low-pressure spaces behind desks, cabinets and entertainment units.
Travel & Temporary Use
The flat 3M cable is easy to coil and carry for temporary wired-network setups.
Keep the Cable Flat without Crushing or Sharply Folding It
The flat profile permits discreet routing, but the cable should not be permanently compressed by heavy furniture, pinched in a closing door or folded through an extremely sharp angle. Excessive pressure can damage the internal twisted pairs and reduce network reliability.
Recommended Installation Practice
- Use smooth curves rather than sharp folds.
- Avoid high-traffic floor areas where the cable will be crushed.
- Do not staple through the cable jacket.
- Keep the connector latch accessible for removal.
- Use suitable clips or low-pressure cable channels.
Gold-Plated Contacts and Protective Latch Covers
Both ends use standard RJ45 male connectors with eight conductive contacts. The moulded housings and protective latch covers help reduce damage during connection, removal, transport and cable routing.
- RJ45 male connector at both ends
- Eight gold-plated conductive contacts
- Protective latch-cover design
- Moulded strain relief
- Plug-and-play network connection
Connect Standard Ethernet Devices at Home or Work
Use the cable between compatible devices fitted with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports. It functions as a normal straight-through network patch cable and negotiates the highest Ethernet speed supported by the connected equipment.
Routers & Modems
Connect a computer, switch, access point or other network device to a router or modem.
Network Switches
Use as a patch cable between compatible switches, patch panels and end devices.
Computers & Laptops
Connect PCs, workstations and laptops that have a built-in or external RJ45 adapter.
Gaming Consoles
Works with compatible PlayStation, Xbox and other consoles offering wired Ethernet.
Smart TVs & Media Players
Connect compatible televisions, set-top boxes, streaming players and TV boxes.
NAS & Network Printers
Connect compatible storage devices, VoIP phones and network-enabled printers.
Cat 6 U/UTP — This Is an Unshielded Ethernet Cable
U/UTP indicates that the cable has no overall foil shield and no individual shielding around the twisted pairs. The twisted-pair geometry provides its principal crosstalk control.
Do Not Describe It As
- STP or shielded twisted pair
- FTP or foil-shielded Ethernet cable
- Cat 6A, Cat 7 or Cat 8 cable
- 10Gbps network cable
- Outdoor-rated or armoured cable
- In-wall installation cable
All Connected Network Equipment Must Support 1000Mbps
The cable can carry a Gigabit Ethernet link, but it cannot upgrade a 100Mbps router, switch or network adapter. The negotiated connection speed will be limited by the slowest connected device.
For a Gigabit Link
- Use Gigabit-capable router or switch ports.
- Use a Gigabit-capable computer or device adapter.
- Check that all eight RJ45 conductors are active.
- Configure the network adapter for automatic negotiation.
- Remember that internet speed may be lower than local LAN speed.
What This Product Does
- Connects two compatible RJ45 Ethernet devices.
- Provides a 3-metre wired network connection.
- Supports 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1000Mbps Ethernet.
- Supports Cat 6 channel bandwidth up to 250MHz.
- Uses pure-copper signal conductors.
