Microconnect B-UTP5005 netwerkkabel grijs 0,5 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP5005 is a 0.5 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors, designed for connecting devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable uses U/UTP construction and meets Cat5e testing up to 100 MHz while remaining backwards compatible with Cat5. Its grey jacket and compact length make it suitable for small office, home networks and entertainment setups.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides reliable data transmission consistent with Cat5e standards and supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) network speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s when used in compatible environments. It has latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to reduce the risk of damage during installation in tight spaces. The short 0.5 m length minimises excess cabling and clutter in rack or desktop installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to router, modem or patch panel
• Short links between networked devices in home or small office
• Desktop and rack cable management where a short jumper is needed
• Entertainment devices such as smart TVs, media players and consoles

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port (for example on a switch, router, modem or wall jack) until the latch clicks. Ensure connected devices are powered on and configured for the intended network speed. For best performance, avoid tight bends and excessive tension on the cable; route it through cable management paths or use cable ties to keep it tidy.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect B-UTP5005 for short, direct links where a 0.5 m Cat5e jumper is sufficient; replace with a higher category cable (e.g., Cat6) if longer runs or higher noise immunity are required.
