ACT blauw 3 meter U/UTP CAT5E patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Blue 3 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable (IB5603) is a 3 m network cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections. It has AWG#24 conductors, a PVC sheath and RJ45 connectors with gold plating to support stable signal transmission and reduce contact resistance. The cable is rated for 100 MHz bandwidth and comes in colour RAL 5012 (blue), suitable for typical home and office networking setups.

Advantages

The cable combines U/UTP CAT5E performance with gold-plated RJ45 plugs for improved contact quality and reduced signal loss. AWG#24 conductors provide standard electrical characteristics for Ethernet networking, while the PVC sheath offers mechanical protection and flexibility. Its 3 m length gives placement flexibility without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, routers and switches in home networks
• Office desktop and patch panel connections
• Audio/visual equipment requiring Ethernet connectivity
• Temporary or permanent wired network links up to CAT5E performance

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of your device (PC, switch, router) and the other end into the corresponding port on the networking equipment or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until they click. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strong electromagnetic sources. For structured installations, label both ends and secure the cable with suitable cable management accessories.

Recommendations

Use this CAT5E patch cable for standard Ethernet connections up to 100 MHz. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or heavy machinery to minimise interference. For environments requiring higher bandwidth or shielding, consider CAT6/CAT6A or shielded cable variants.
