Netwerkkabel ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA PVC blauw 0,5 m

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA PVC Blue 0.5m network cable features copper-clad aluminum conductors with AWG 26, a PVC jacket and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors. With a length of 0.5 m and support for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) it provides data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s for typical home and office network connections.

Advantages

The cable combines copper-clad aluminum strands to offer a cost-effective alternative to pure copper cables while maintaining compatibility with standard RJ-45 ports. U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall braid absent) construction and a reinforced strain relief improve installation durability, and latch protection on the connectors prevents accidental disconnection. Gold-plated contacts reduce corrosion and ensure reliable contact.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and printers to a home router or office switch
• Short patch connections in patch panels or network cabinets
• Gigabit Ethernet links over short distances (up to typical horizontal cabling runs)

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (router, switch, PC). Ensure the connector latches are fully engaged to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; the reinforced strain relief reduces stress at the connector but proper routing extends cable life. Use the 0.5 m cable for short patching or direct device connections.

Recommendations

For best performance use the ProXtend CAT5e cable for short-distance Gigabit Ethernet connections. Avoid running the cable parallel to power lines to minimise electromagnetic interference. Replace the cable if the jacket or connectors are damaged.
