Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP5-025B UTP Cat5e 0.25m Blue

The C-TECH CB-PP5-025B UTP Cat5e patch cord is a 0.25 m blue network cable designed for short connections between network devices. Its Cat5e specification supports reliable Ethernet data transmission at typical LAN speeds and the UTP (unshielded twisted pair) design is suitable for standard home and office network environments where cable runs are short and interference is minimal. The compact length and flexible jacket make this cable convenient for patch panels, network switches, routers, and devices located close together.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides a compact, low-profile connection that reduces cable clutter in rack-mounted or desktop setups and enables tidy installations in confined spaces. The UTP construction and quality connectors ensure stable signal transfer for typical local area network applications. Its blue jacket offers clear visual identification among multiple cables, while the short 0.25 m length minimizes latency and signal degradation over very short runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting a network switch to an adjacent patch panel
• Short links between a router and nearby devices
• Tidy cabling in small office desks or media cabinets
• Temporary test connections and diagnostics in network racks

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (UTP)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor type: twisted pair (unshielded)
• Jacket color: blue
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Typical use: Ethernet LAN patching

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on the devices you intend to link, ensuring a secure click when the connector tab engages. Use the cable for direct, short-distance connections where the 0.25 m length provides a clean, non-excessive link. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connector; route it with gentle curves to maintain signal integrity. For installations in racks or panels, position the cable to avoid tension on the connector and secure nearby cables to prevent strain.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Cat5e UTP cable for short patching tasks within the same rack or equipment cluster. Keep it away from strong electromagnetic sources if possible, and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines. Replace the cable if connectors become loose or the jacket shows signs of damage.
