Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP5-25 Patchcord UTP Cat5e 25m Gray

The C-TECH CB-PP5-25 Patchcord UTP Cat5e 25m in gray is a category 5e unshielded twisted pair network cable designed for general Ethernet installations. At 25 meters length it provides a practical reach for linking network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels and wall outlets in home and office environments. Constructed to support reliable data transfer, this Cat5e patchcord meets common signal and attenuation characteristics expected of Category 5e cabling for standard 10/100/1000 Mbps networks.

Advantages

The cable combines a flexible PVC jacket with consistent pair twisting to minimize crosstalk and maintain signal integrity over its 25 m length. Its UTP Cat5e design allows straightforward installation in horizontal and patching applications, while the neutral gray jacket helps the cable blend into most interiors. The product is suitable for repeated routing and can be used in patch panels and device-to-device connections where Cat5e performance is required.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers over short to medium distances
• Home and small office network patching
• Linking network ports to patch panels and wall sockets
• Temporary or permanent cabling for 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Length: 25 meters
• Conductor type: stranded copper conductors for improved flexibility
• Jacket material: PVC outer sheath
• Color: gray
• Connectors: RJ45 terminated at both ends (standard 8P8C)
• Intended use: horizontal patching and device-to-device connections

How to use

Route the C-TECH Cat5e patchcord between network devices, ensuring connectors are fully inserted into RJ45 ports until they click. Avoid tight bends and kinks; maintain a bend radius no smaller than approximately four times the cable diameter. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources such as heavy-duty motors or fluorescent ballast to reduce potential interference. For fixed installations use appropriate cable management like clips, trays or cable ties to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat5e patchcord for typical LAN connections supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps. For critical high-performance links over longer runs or environments with high interference consider using higher category cabling (Cat6/Cat6a) or shielded variants. Verify connector seating and test the link with a network tester after installation to confirm continuity and performance.
