F/UTP CAT5E patch cable ACT IB7207 7 meter

The ACT F/UTP CAT5E patch cable is a high-quality networking solution designed to provide reliable data transmission for various devices. Measuring 7 meters in length, this cable features a durable PVC sheath in an ivory color, making it suitable for professional office setups or home network installations. The F/UTP construction includes shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring a stable and consistent connection for your hardware.

Advantages

This patch cable offers superior signal integrity due to its F/UTP shielding, which protects data from external noise and interference. The inclusion of 50µ gold-plated contacts on the RJ45 connectors ensures excellent conductivity and long-term durability, preventing corrosion and signal loss. Its 26 AWG conductor gauge provides the necessary flexibility for easy routing while maintaining the performance standards required for CAT5E networking environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to network switches or routers
• Linking IP cameras to network video recorders
• Connecting VoIP phones to wall outlets
• Home office network setups requiring a 7-meter reach

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not designed for outdoor use or environments where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperatures, as the PVC sheath is intended for indoor applications. It is also not suitable for high-speed data requirements exceeding the CAT5E standard, such as 10Gbps networks.

Key specifications

• Cable type: F/UTP CAT5E
• Length: 7 meters
• Connector type: RJ45
• Contact plating: 50µ gold
• Conductor gauge: 26 AWG
• Sheath material: PVC
• Color: Ivory (RAL 1015)

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device until you hear a click. Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles or pinched by furniture, as this can damage the internal conductors and affect performance. The 7-meter length allows for flexible placement of devices within a room, but avoid running the cable through areas where it may be stepped on or subjected to mechanical stress.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 7-meter length is sufficient for your specific distance requirements
• Ensure your equipment supports RJ45 Ethernet connections
• Confirm that the CAT5E standard meets the bandwidth requirements of your network hardware

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid bundling this cable tightly with power cords to prevent potential electromagnetic interference. Regularly inspect the connectors for dust or debris to maintain a secure physical connection.
