Network Cable C-TECH CB-CPL-5U RJ-45 Connector Cat5e UTP 5m Black

The C-TECH CB-CPL-5U RJ-45 Connector Cat5e UTP network cable is a 5-meter cable designed for wired local area network connections. It uses Cat5e unshielded twisted pair (UTP) conductors with standard RJ-45 plugs at both ends, offering a physical link for Ethernet devices such as computers, routers and switches. The cable is black and intended for use where straightforward, short- to medium-length Ethernet runs are required.

Advantages

This Cat5e UTP cable provides consistent data transmission for typical Ethernet applications up to the limits of the Cat5e standard. The pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors allow plug-and-play connectivity without additional assembly. The 5 m length balances reach and signal integrity for desktop, home network and small office setups. The cable jacket and connector strain relief are designed to withstand routine installation and handling.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs to routers, switches or modems
• Wired connections for home network equipment and smart devices
• Short to medium-length patching in office network cabinets and workstations
• Temporary or permanent Ethernet links where Cat5e performance is sufficient

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (unshielded twisted pair)
• Connector type: RJ-45 plugs on both ends
• Length: 5 meters
• Color: Black
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper conductors suitable for Ethernet

How to use

Verify that connected devices support Cat5e Ethernet and are powered off if required by your installation procedures. Plug each RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet ports of the devices you intend to connect; ensure a firm click to confirm proper seating. For network performance, avoid tightly coiling the cable, kinking, or placing it near high-voltage power lines. After connection, power on devices and check link/activity indicators on the network ports to confirm successful connectivity.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, use this Cat5e cable for typical 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T links within its specified length; route cables to minimize electromagnetic interference and maintain gentle bend radii. If you require higher bandwidth, outdoor exposure protection, or shielded cabling for noisy environments, consider an alternative cable type that meets those specific requirements.
