DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP netwerkkabel, 3 m, grijs, CCA, RJ45, Gigabit Ethernet

Connect a desktop PC in a home office to a router or patch panel with this 3-metre DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP network cable. The grey PVC jacket blends into most workspaces, while the copper-clad aluminium conductors keep the cable lightweight and cost-effective for everyday LAN links.

Why choose it

This cable delivers reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance for short to medium runs. The CCA conductors offer a good balance between signal integrity and cost, making it a practical choice for home or small-office networks where budget matters. The unshielded U/UTP design is easy to route and terminate, and the grey jacket resists everyday wear.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting computers, printers, or NAS devices to a switch or router
• Extending a patch lead in a structured cabling setup
• Replacing a damaged or too-short Ethernet cable in an office
• Setting up a temporary LAN for events or testing

Good to know

The cable is fully backward-compatible with older Ethernet standards, so it works with 10/100 Mbps equipment as well. The RJ45 plugs are moulded with strain relief to prevent snagging. Keep the bend radius moderate to avoid stressing the CCA conductors, and avoid running this cable in areas with high electromagnetic interference if maximum throughput is required.
