ACT rood 0,5 meter U/UTP CAT5E patchkabel componentniveau met RJ45-stekkers

ACT Red 0.5m U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors is a short Ethernet patch lead designed for reliable network connections over short distances. The cable uses 24 AWG conductors, a PVC sheath and features 50 µ gold-plated contacts in the RJ-45 plugs. Its red RAL 3031 colour makes patch points easy to identify in racks and patch panels.

Advantages

The cable offers Category 5e performance for standard Ethernet applications, compact 0.5 m length for tidy installations, and durable RJ-45 connectors with 50 µ gold contacts to ensure stable electrical contact and corrosion resistance. The PVC sheath provides basic mechanical protection and flexibility for patching in offices or communications cabinets.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers over short distances
• Patching in server rooms and network racks
• Desk-level cable management and workstation connections

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port until the latch clicks. Use the 0.5 m length for connections between patch panels, switches and nearby devices or for tidy desk connections. Avoid sharp bends and do not stretch the cable; ensure the connectors are fully seated to maintain reliable contact.

Recommendations

For best results in rack and patch-panel environments, route the cable without excessive bending and keep it away from high-power electrical cables to reduce potential interference. Replace the cable if the sheath or connectors show visible damage.
