ACT F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors, 0.5 meter, black

The ACT F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors, 0.5 meter, black, is a high-quality networking solution designed to ensure stable and efficient data transmission within local area networks. Measuring 0.5 meters in length, this black network cable is well-suited for short-distance connections between networking hardware in home offices, server rooms, and professional work environments. Built with reliable shielded twisted pair construction and LSZH jacket material, it helps maintain signal integrity while minimizing electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

This CAT5E patch cable incorporates full copper 26AWG conductors and 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts, providing superior electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion over time. The shielded F/UTP design actively protects data signals from external interference, ensuring consistent performance in environments with multiple electronic devices. Every cable undergoes rigorous 100% testing during production to meet international quality standards, delivering dependability for critical network links.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers and laptops to network wall outlets
• Linking routers, network switches, and patch panels within a rack
• Short-distance local area network setups in offices and residential spaces

This cable may not be suitable for long-distance network runs or exterior outdoor routing, as its 0.5-meter length is specifically optimized for compact installations and patch panels. Additionally, applications requiring higher bandwidth categories such as CAT6A or CAT8 for multi-gigabit speeds over longer distances will require a different cable type.

Key specifications

• Cable type: F/UTP CAT5E
• Length: 0.5 meters
• Conductor material: Full copper AWG 26
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Contact plating: 50µ gold
• Sheath material: LSZH
• Colour: Black

To use the patch cable, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the designated Ethernet port of your networking device until the retaining clip clicks securely into place. Ensure that both connected devices are powered off or properly configured before plugging in the cable to prevent data transmission errors. Route the cable carefully without bending it sharply or placing heavy objects on top of the LSZH sheath.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 0.5-meter length is sufficient for the distance between your target devices
• Ensure your hardware utilizes standard RJ-45 Ethernet ports
• Check if your network setup specifically requires F/UTP shielding and CAT5E performance specifications

For optimal network performance, avoid tight bends and excessive tension near the RJ-45 connectors, and ensure the cable is installed away from major sources of electrical interference.
