Ethernet patch cable Cabletech KABEL PATCHCORD UTP Cat5e 15 m

Cabletech KABEL PATCHCORD UTP Cat5e 15 m is an unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet patch cable built to meet Cat5e performance for 100BASE-TX and Gigabit-compatible networks. At 15 meters length, the cable connects switches, routers, patch panels and network devices in home, office and server room environments. The cable offers standard RJ45 termination and is intended for short- to medium-range horizontal and patching links where Cat5e bandwidth and reliability are required.

Advantages

The Cabletech UTP Cat5e patch cable provides reliable data transmission for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit-capable links while maintaining the flexibility and ease of routing associated with unshielded cables. Its 15 m length reduces the need for intermediate patch points in common network layouts and allows neat cable runs between equipment racks and workstations. The cable is compatible with standard RJ45 jacks and supports typical Ethernet features such as auto-negotiation and link integrity monitoring when used with compliant network hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers within the same room or between adjacent rooms
• Patching between patch panels and network devices in small server racks
• Wiring desktop workstations, VoIP phones and networked printers
• Temporary or permanent network extensions in home and office setups

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Supported network standards: 100BASE-TX and Gigabit-compatible operation within Cat5e limits
• Length: 15 meters
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Conductor type: copper (solid or stranded depending on manufacturer configuration)
• Typical use: patching and horizontal links

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector firmly into the corresponding network ports on switches, routers, patch panels or end devices. Ensure connectors click into place and that cable run routing avoids sharp bends and heavy crushing to preserve signal integrity. For best results, avoid coiling the cable tightly and keep the cable separated from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large motors or fluorescent ballast wiring.

Usage recommendations

For reliable Gigabit operation, use the Cabletech Cat5e patch cable within typical Cat5e distance guidelines and maintain proper installation practice: straight runs where possible, minimal untwisting at terminations, and secure routing in cable management trays or ties. Replace any cable showing visible damage or intermittent link behavior.
