Run a wired network link neatly with the UGREEN 11261. This 2m flat Cat 7 cable is thin enough to slip under a rug, along a skirting board or behind a desk, and supports up to 10Gbps and 600MHz with compatible network equipment.
Shielded twisted pairs help protect the signal from interference, pure copper conductors carry it efficiently, and gold-plated RJ45 plugs fit routers, switches, PCs, consoles, smart TVs and NAS devices. The flat profile also resists tangling in a bag or drawer.
Key features
Up to 10Gbps, 600MHz
Ready for 10 Gigabit networking when the connected ports support it.
Flat, thin profile
Tucks under carpets and along skirting and door frames, and resists tangling.
Shielded pairs, pure copper
Shielding helps reduce crosstalk and interference; copper conductors carry the signal.
Gold-plated RJ45 plugs
Standard RJ45 connectors for a secure fit in network ports.
Where it fits
Tidy desk setups
Run a discreet cable from the router to a PC or dock.
Gaming and TV
Connect a console or smart TV without a thick cable showing.
NAS and 10G gear
Patch compatible 10Gbps switches, NAS devices and network cards.
Will it work with your setup?
Works with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports on routers, switches, PCs, laptops, consoles, smart TVs and NAS devices.
Speed is set by the slowest port in the link; a 1Gbps port stays at 1Gbps with a Cat 7 cable.
A laptop without Ethernet needs a USB or USB-C Ethernet adapter.
Setup and everyday use
Plan the route along a wall, under a rug or behind furniture, leaving some slack at each end.
Plug one RJ45 connector into the router or switch until the clip clicks, and the other into your device.
Check the link lights or network settings; the speed negotiates automatically.
Lay the flat cable without sharp creases or twists.
To unplug, press the clip and pull the connector, not the cable.
A closer look
Before you buy
The cable does not raise your internet plan speed; it replaces a wireless hop with a wired one.
Flat cables are best for short, visible runs; avoid placing them where they will be walked on constantly or pinched by doors.
This is an RJ45 Ethernet cable, not an RJ11 telephone lead or a fibre cable.

Frequently asked questions
Will it work with my Gigabit router?
Yes. It fits standard RJ45 ports, and the link runs at the router port speed, typically 1Gbps.
Is a flat cable as good as a round one?
For short home and office runs, a flat shielded cable works well and is easier to hide. For long runs or installation inside walls, a round cable is usually preferred.
Can I put it under a carpet?
Yes. The thin profile suits running under rugs and carpets. Avoid spots with heavy foot traffic or furniture legs on top.
What do I need for 10Gbps?
Both ends of the link, and any switch in between, need 10Gbps ports. Storage and computer performance also affect transfer speeds.
Why does the link show 100Mbps?
Check both ports support Gigabit or faster, reseat the plugs and try another port. A crushed or sharply creased cable can also cause a slower link.
Does it work with a PS5 or smart TV?
Yes, if the device has an Ethernet port. Select the wired network option in the device settings.
