Microconnect UTP5003 netwerkkabel grijs 0,3 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP5003 is a 0.3 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors, designed for reliable short-range connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers or patch panels. The cable meets Cat5e specifications and is tested up to 100 MHz, offering backward compatibility with Cat5 and supporting data transfers up to 1000 Mbit/s. The grey U/UTP construction reduces interference while a latch protection on the connectors prevents damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

The cable provides a compact 0.3 m length suitable for close device-to-device connections, Cat5e performance tested to 100 MHz, and RJ-45 terminations on both ends for universal compatibility. Its U/UTP design minimises electromagnetic interference and the built-in latch protection helps avoid connector breakage when routing through constrained openings.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to router or modem at short distance
• Patch panel to network device connections
• Short links in small office or home network setups
• Temporary or permanent connections behind desks or in racks

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the first device and the other into the port of the second device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place via the latch protection, and route the cable without sharp bends to maintain signal integrity. For rack or desk installations, secure excess length to avoid strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable length appropriate for short connections (0.3 m) and avoid running it parallel to high-power electrical cables. Use this Cat5e UTP cable for device-to-device links where Cat6 is not required and compatibility with existing Cat5 installations is needed.
