Ethernet-kabel ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 1 m rood

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP copper Ethernet cable is a 1 m red patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) data rates with up to 1000 Mbit/s transfer capacity. The cable uses U/UTP construction to limit interference and features gold-plated contacts, PVC jacket and reinforced strain relief with a snagless latch for connector protection.

Advantages

This ProXtend CAT5e cable is built for long service life, offering reinforced strain relief and snagless latch protection to reduce connector damage during use. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. Available in copper (CU) and copper-clad aluminium variants and multiple colours and lengths, the range allows choosing a cable that matches specific network and installation needs.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home and small office networks
• Patch panel to network device connections
• Short-distance Gigabit Ethernet links up to 1 m
• Colour-coded cabling for organised installations

• Jacket: PVC
• Colour: Red
• Weight: 0.053 kg

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices (computer, switch, router or patch panel) until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinch points; keep it away from high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic sources to minimise interference. For best performance, use this cable for connections within the specified 1 m length.

Recommendations

For reliable Gigabit performance, ensure connectors are fully seated and inspect the cable for visible damage before use. Select the copper (CU) variant where maximum conductivity and durability are required; use colour-coded lengths to simplify cable management.
