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

Patch Cable ACT Red 5 meter U/UTP CAT5E with RJ45 Connectors is a 5 m network patch cable designed for Ethernet connections in home and office networks. The cable uses AWG24 conductors, RJ-45 connectors with 50 µ gold-plated contacts and a PVC sheath. Its U/UTP CAT5E construction reduces external interference while supporting stable data transmission. The cable is finished in a red RAL 3031 colour for easy identification in cabling setups.

Advantages

The CAT5E U/UTP design provides reduced crosstalk and consistent performance for typical Fast Ethernet and Gigabit-capable installations where CAT5E is appropriate. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. A 5 m length offers flexibility for connecting devices across desks or racks without additional extensions. The PVC sheath delivers standard mechanical protection and insulation.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home networks
• Patch-panel to switch connections in small office installations
• Temporary or permanent desk and equipment wiring where 5 m length is sufficient

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the locking clip clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce stress on the connectors. For equipment racks, use appropriate cable management to maintain bend radius and organisation.

Recommendations

Use this CAT5E patch cable for standard Ethernet connections up to the performance limits of CAT5E cabling. Avoid using the cable in environments requiring higher shielding or where Cat6/Cat6A performance is required. Keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference and extreme temperatures to maintain signal quality and longevity.
