Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP5-5B UTP Cat5e 5m Blue

The C-TECH CB-PP5-5B UTP Cat5e 5m network cable is a five-meter unshielded twisted pair cable intended for Ethernet connections in home and office environments. Its blue jacket identifies the cable visually while the Cat5e specification supports gigabit-capable networks at typical local distances. The UTP design reduces electromagnetic interference through paired conductors without additional shielding, providing a balance between performance and flexibility for structured cabling and ad-hoc device connections.

Advantages

The cable delivers reliable data transmission for standard Ethernet applications and is suitable for use with routers, switches, modems, computers and other networked devices. Its Cat5e performance enables stable transfer rates for most household and small-business networking needs. The flexible jacket simplifies routing through furniture and cable management systems while the 5-meter length offers sufficient reach for many desktop-to-wall port and device-to-switch connections.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections between computers and network switches
• Connecting routers or modems to wall outlets or patch panels
• Home networking and small office setups
• Temporary or permanent cabling where a 5 m run is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 5 meters
• Color: blue
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Suitable for up to 1 Gbps Ethernet at typical LAN distances
• Flexible PVC jacket for easy routing

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to your network device (such as a computer, switch or router) and the other connector to the corresponding port on the opposite device or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place to secure the link. For best results, avoid tight bends, kinks or compression of the cable and keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as heavy machinery or unshielded power lines. Test the connection using network diagnostics or link LEDs on your devices to confirm proper operation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use the cable indoors and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. If you require higher bandwidth, longer runs, or installations in electrically noisy environments, consider a higher category or shielded cable. Store spare cable coiled without sharp bends to maintain conductor integrity.
