UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,000, brand new and sealed and ready to collect today. It is an unshielded U/UTP design that carries wired internet at up to 1000Mbps and handles 250MHz of bandwidth through eight cores twisted into four pairs. Its flat black jacket and RJ45 plug on each end let it slip under a door or along a skirting board without a bulky bump. You can pick up the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m at our store on the first floor of Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, in Nairobi CBD.
Built for families, students and console gamers across Kenya, the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m solves a familiar problem: the router sits by the window where the fibre installer left it, while the TV, PlayStation or desktop sits in another room. Wi-Fi through two concrete walls drops, buffers and lags in online matches. A 10-metre wired run from a Safaricom Home Fibre or Zuku router delivers a steady connection with low, consistent ping. Plug one end into a free router port and the other into the device, and the connection works instantly without any setup.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell unbranded cables with unknown wiring, Mascom International stocks the genuine UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable with a 6-month warranty and a walk-in store where you can see it first. Customers across Nairobi tell us a single wired link to the TV ended their weekend streaming stalls in Kilimani and South B apartments. If you need more reach, the 15m version costs KSh 1,600. Visit us on Kimathi Street, call or WhatsApp to order, and pay only when the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m reaches your door anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable
How much is the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m in Kenya?
The UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m costs KSh 1,000 at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. That price covers the sealed cable with RJ45 plugs already fitted on both ends, so there is nothing to crimp or assemble. It also includes a 6-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. If 10 metres falls short, the 15m length is KSh 1,600, a KSh 600 step up, while the 20m costs KSh 2,000.
Should I buy the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m or the 15m version?
Choose the 10m if your measured route is eight metres or less, and pick the 15m when the path is longer or you are unsure. Both use the same Cat 6 U/UTP build, 1000Mbps speed and flat black jacket, so over home distances they perform identically. The UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m costs KSh 1,000 against KSh 1,600 for the 15m. Measure along skirting boards and around door frames, not in a straight line, and leave about a metre of slack at each end.
Will the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable work with my Safaricom or Airtel home internet router?
Yes, the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable plugs into any router with an RJ45 LAN port, including units supplied by Safaricom Home Fibre, Zuku, Airtel Kenya and Faiba. Fibre routers usually carry several LAN sockets on the back. Connect one end there and the other to your TV, console or PC; no drivers or settings are needed. Many 4G and 5G home routers from Safaricom and Airtel also have a LAN port, so check the back of your unit before you order.
Is the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable good for PS5 and online gaming?
Yes, a wired link gives a PS5, Xbox or gaming PC a steadier connection than Wi-Fi, which matters more for online play than raw speed. At 1000Mbps, the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable is faster than most home internet plans, so it will not be the bottleneck. The real gain is fewer ping spikes and dropped packets during EA Sports FC, Call of Duty or Fortnite matches. Large game downloads also finish sooner when the console is not competing with phones for Wi-Fi airtime.
Can I run the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m under a carpet or a door?
Yes, the flat profile is made for exactly that kind of route. The UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m lies low under rugs and can pass through the gap beneath many interior doors, where a round cable would lift the carpet or get pinched. Avoid spots where office chairs roll over it daily or where a door slams on it repeatedly. For the neatest finish, run it along the skirting board with adhesive clips, which keeps it clear of mops and cleaning water.
Does the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m lose speed over its length?
No, ten metres is a short run for Cat 6 and sits well within the distance Ethernet is designed to cover in one cable. The UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m delivers the same 1000Mbps capacity at the far end as at the router. What decides your real speed is your internet package and the port on your device. An older laptop or television with a 100Mbps port will cap the link at that rate, whichever cable you use.
Can I use the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m for TV streaming?
Yes, any television or Android TV box with an Ethernet port can connect directly to your router with it. A wired TV avoids the buffering that hits Wi-Fi when several phones, laptops and tablets share one network in the evening. Netflix, YouTube and Showmax in 4K hold their quality better on a cable because the signal does not fade through walls. Look for a port marked LAN or Ethernet on the back of the TV; most mid-range and higher models have one.
Who should buy the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m, and who should skip it?
Buy it if your router and your TV, console or desktop sit in neighbouring rooms or at opposite ends of one large room. It suits apartments, bedsitters and single-storey homes. Skip it if the route climbs to an upper floor or crosses a long corridor; the 20m version at KSh 2,000 is the safer fit there. Skip it too if you only need a short extension to a cable already in place, where the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m at KSh 700 makes more sense.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Network Performance
- Category 6 (Cat 6) rating — a wired networking standard built to carry gigabit internet reliably for homes, studios and small offices.
- 1000Mbps data speed — gigabit Ethernet, quick enough to move a 1GB file across your home network in about ten seconds.
- 250MHz bandwidth — the frequency range the cable can handle; more bandwidth leaves headroom so data stays clean at full speed.
- Eight cores in four twisted pairs — twisting each pair cancels electrical noise picked up from nearby power cables, fridges and microwaves.
- Cross isolation separator — keeps the four pairs apart inside the jacket, cutting crosstalk, which is interference one pair causes in another.
- Plug-and-play operation — no drivers, apps or settings to configure; the link comes up as soon as both plugs click into place.
Compatibility and Supported Devices
- RJ45 plug on each end — the standard Ethernet connector found on routers, switches, modems, desktop PCs and many business laptops.
- Routers and switches — connects a free LAN port on a fibre, 4G or 5G router to any wired device in another room.
- Gaming consoles — fits the network port on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One for steadier online matches.
- Televisions and streaming boxes — links TVs and Android TV boxes that carry an Ethernet port, cutting the buffering common on busy Wi-Fi.
- Backward compatible — works with older 100Mbps and Cat 5e network ports, running at whatever speed the slower device supports.
- Laptops without an Ethernet port — need a USB-C or USB-A to Ethernet adapter, sold separately, before this cable can connect.
Build and Design
- Flat profile — a thin, ribbon-like body that lies close to floors and walls instead of standing proud like round cable does.
- 10-metre length — enough to cross a large lounge or reach the neighbouring room, with slack left over for tidy routing along walls.
- Unshielded U/UTP construction — no foil layer, which keeps the cable light and easy to bend; pair twisting handles everyday indoor interference.
- Black outer jacket — blends in with dark TV stands, desks and skirting boards, so the run is far less noticeable in a living room.
- Factory-fitted connectors — both plugs are attached at the factory, avoiding the loose or miswired ends often found on hand-made cables.
- Indoor patch cable — outdoor routes should pass through plastic conduit to protect the jacket from direct sun and rain.
Routing and Everyday Handling
- Measure the real path first — follow skirting boards and door frames, then add a metre of slack at each end.
- Gentle bends only — avoid folding the cable flat on itself, which can strain the pairs inside over time.
- Keep clear of power sockets — running it a short distance away from mains extension leads reduces electrical noise.
- Coil spare length loosely — a loose loop behind the TV stand is safer than a tight bundle tied with rubber bands.
- Unplug by the clip — press the small RJ45 latch before pulling, so the plug and the router port both last longer.
Inclusions and Pack Details
- One UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable 10m with an RJ45 plug fitted on each end, ready to use immediately.

- No crimping tool, loose connectors or software needed; the cable is complete and works straight out of the pack.
