You need a cable that's basically a bridge. Twenty-five centimetres from the switch port to the device sitting right there, and nothing more.
This ultra-thin Cat 6 cord is 25 cm of slim 26AWG cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors on each end. No excess loop, no sag, no "where did I put the other end" moment. Fluke-tested, Cat 6 to ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA/EIA-568-C.2. Runs Fast Ethernet through 10-Gigabit at up to 250 MHz.
The flush-moulded boot keeps the connection clean and the white jacket disappears into a standard rack. 3-year warranty
