Mascom International stocks the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m at KSh 700, brand new and sealed and ready for same-day collection. The UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable pairs an RJ45 male plug with an RJ45 female socket, so it lengthens a network cable you already own by three metres. Inside are pure copper 26AWG wires under F-UTP foil shielding, rated for gigabit speeds up to 1000Mbps, all in a black PVC jacket. Pick up the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for workers, students and gamers who need a wired link a little closer, the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable handles short gaps neatly. The usual story: you moved your desk half a metre, rearranged the TV stand, or bought a console, and the old cable no longer reaches. Three metres covers most of these moves without a long coil of spare cable on the floor. Developers working from Kilimani flats, accountants with a desktop beside the router and Strathmore or USIU students setting up a study corner all fit this length well.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell thin, unbranded extensions, Mascom International carries UGREEN's shielded Cat 6 build with metal-reinforced plugs that hold firm in the port. Buyers throughout Kenya report that a wired connection stays steadier than Wi-Fi through concrete walls, especially in busy apartment blocks. The 5m version costs KSh 1,200 for wider gaps. Visit the shop to see both lengths side by side, or message us on WhatsApp to have the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m delivered with pay-on-arrival.
Common Questions About the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable
What is the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m price in Kenya?
The UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m sells for KSh 700, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price includes the black 3m cable, a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. Stepping up to the 5m version costs KSh 1,200, which is KSh 500 more for two extra metres. At about KSh 233 per metre, the 3m is a low-cost fix for a short gap.
Is the 3m UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable long enough, or should I get the 5m?
The 3m UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable is enough when the device sits in the same part of the room as the router. Both lengths carry identical specs: Cat 6, F-UTP shielding, pure copper and 1000Mbps. Choose the 5m at KSh 1,200 when the cable must cross a room, follow a skirting board around corners or pass a doorway. Measure the actual route, not the straight line, because cables rarely run direct along walls.
Will the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m keep me online during KPLC power cuts?
The UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m needs no power, so it keeps working whenever the router does. Many Kenyan home offices put their Safaricom, Zuku or Airtel Kenya router on a small UPS to ride through KPLC outages. A laptop on battery, wired through this extension, then stays connected for calls and uploads. The cable has no electronics inside, so a power surge on the mains does not affect it the way it can affect a powered device.
Who should buy the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m, and who should skip it?
The UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m suits anyone whose current network cable falls short by a metre or two. It is a good fit for desk moves, console setups and TV units near the router. Skip it if you are wiring a new room or a run longer than 10m; the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable at KSh 1,000 for 10m or KSh 2,000 for 20m makes more sense. Two cables ending in plugs need the UGREEN NW261 RJ45 Ethernet Extender Adapter at KSh 800 instead.
Can I use the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m for a laptop I unplug every day?
Yes, the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m handles daily plugging well because its plugs are reinforced with metal. Lawyers, journalists and sales teams who carry a laptop home each evening can leave the extension fixed at the desk. Plug and unplug at the male end only, which takes the wear off your router port. The locking clip clicks in each time, so you know the connection is seated before you start work.
Can I connect a CCTV recorder to my router with the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable?
Yes, the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable carries data between an NVR or DVR recorder and a router like any RJ45 cable. Shops and offices in Nairobi often place the recorder in a cabinet a short distance from the router, and the network lead falls short. Three metres bridges that gap, letting you view cameras on your phone remotely. For new camera cable runs across a building, use full-length cable and the UGREEN NW304 Multifunction Crimping Tool.
Does the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable support gigabit fibre speeds?
The UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable is rated up to 1000Mbps, which is gigabit speed. That comfortably covers home fibre packages from Safaricom, Zuku and Faiba, and leaves headroom for future upgrades. To get gigabit, your router port, the original cable and the computer's network card must all support it too. An older Cat 5 cable plugged into the female end will limit speed to what that cable can carry.
How do I connect the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m correctly?
Connecting the UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable 3m takes about ten seconds and no tools. Push the plug of your existing network cable into the female socket until it clicks. Then insert the male plug into your computer, TV, console or switch. The device should show a wired connection within a few seconds. If nothing appears, reseat both ends and check that the original cable works on its own.
Technical Specifications
What the Cable Does
- Male RJ45 to female RJ45 — adds three metres to a network cable you already have in place.
- Category 6 standard — built for gigabit wired networking used by current routers, laptops and consoles.
- Up to 1000Mbps transfer — moves a 1GB file across a local network in well under a minute.
- No power required — a passive cable with nothing to charge, configure or update before use.
- 3m length — bridges the short gap from a router shelf to a nearby desk or TV stand.
Shielding and Conductors
- F-UTP shielding — one foil wrap around all four wire pairs guards the signal against electrical noise.
- Noise protection — useful where cables run beside extension sockets, chargers and fluorescent tubes.
- Pure copper wiring — gives cleaner signal and less heat than copper-clad aluminium budget leads.
- 26AWG conductors — a common patch-cord thickness that bends easily behind desks and cabinets.
- Twisted pair design — each pair's twist cancels crosstalk, the interference between neighbouring wires.
Device and Network Compatibility
- Standard RJ45 fit — plugs into routers, switches, PCs, laptops, printers, smart TVs and game consoles.
- Accepts Cat 5e and Cat 5 plugs — older cables connect safely, at the speed that older cable supports.
- Kenyan ISP equipment — works with routers from Safaricom, Zuku, Faiba and Airtel Kenya home internet.
- Any operating system — no driver needed on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android TV, PlayStation or Xbox.
- CCTV recorders — links an NVR or DVR network port to a nearby router for remote camera viewing.
Construction
- Metal-reinforced plugs — tougher than plain plastic, so connectors survive frequent daily unplugging.
- PVC jacket — a flexible outer layer that shields the wires from rubbing against desk legs and floors.
- Black colour — stays discreet along dark furniture, cable trays and TV cabinets.
- Latching male clip — locks into the device port so a light tug does not break the connection.
- Female end retention — holds the incoming plug securely so the joint stays put on the floor.
Installation Tips
- Total distance under 100m — keep the original cable plus extension inside the standard Ethernet limit.
- One joint per run — avoid stacking extensions; each connection point adds a little signal loss.
- Keep the joint off walkways — place the connection behind furniture where it will not be kicked.
- Avoid sharp bends — a gentle curve at corners protects the twisted pairs inside the jacket.
- Label both ends — a small tag saves time when tracing cables in an office with many devices.
What Comes With It
- One UGREEN NW112 Cat 6 Ethernet Extension Cable, 3m, black, male and female RJ45 ends fitted.

- Built-in female socket — no separate coupler required to join your existing cable.
