InLine patchkabel U/UTP Cat.5e AWG26 grijs 10m

The InLine Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.5e AWG26 grey 10m provides a 10 metre connection for wired networks, featuring unshielded/UTP twisted-pair construction and RJ-45 plugs on both ends. It is built to support standard Cat5e performance for fast Ethernet and common LAN applications where a flexible, medium-length cable is required. The grey outer jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for office or home environments.

Advantages

This Cat.5e patch cable uses AWG26 conductor size and U/UTP twisted-pair wiring to deliver stable signal transmission for typical 100BASE-TX and many Gigabit Ethernet setups when conditions allow. The RJ-45 connectors ensure straightforward plug-and-play installation without special tools. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability, reducing the need for additional patch panels or intermediary devices in small to medium network layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, switches and routers within offices and homes
• Patch panels and structured cabling in small server rooms
• Setting up networked printers, IP cameras and other Ethernet devices

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.5e
• Conductor gauge: AWG26
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded overall, twisted pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 10 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other connector into the destination device or network switch. Ensure connectors are fully seated in the ports until the locking tab clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp edges; maintain gentle curves and avoid running the cable parallel to power lines to reduce potential interference. For permanent installations, secure the cable using cable ties or clips without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.5e cable for Ethernet links up to 100 metres total channel length when combined with compliant patch panels and horizontal cabling. Test connections with a network tester after installation to confirm continuity and proper wiring. Replace the cable if outer jacket damage or connector deformation is observed.
