Network Cable Digitus CAT 5e U/UTP RJ-45 5m Green

The Digitus CAT 5e U/UTP RJ-45 5m Green patch cord is a 5-meter Ethernet cable intended for reliable data transmission in home and office networks. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and an unshielded/untwisted pair design suitable for Category 5e installations. The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 5e specifications, with performance validated up to 100 MHz to ensure compliance with channel requirements and predictable signal quality. A molded boot provides kink protection, strain relief and a latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage in everyday handling.

Advantages

This Digitus network cable delivers Category 5e performance with tested characteristics such as near-end crosstalk (NEXT) up to 100 MHz, providing stable connections for standard Ethernet applications. The molded boot and integrated strain relief reduce mechanical stress at the connector, and the latch protection helps prevent accidental breakage of the locking tab. The green cable jacket and transparent blue connector allow easy visual identification within cable bundles and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections in home networks and small offices
• Connecting routers, switches, modems and networked devices
• Patch panels and structured cabling within Category 5e channels
• Temporary or permanent horizontal cabling runs up to 5 meters

Key specifications

• Frequency range: up to 100 MHz
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair within unshielded overall jacket)
• Jacket colour: green; connector with transparent blue plug for category identification
• Molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and latch protection

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of a network device and the other plug to a router, switch or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid sharp bends near the molded boots to preserve cable integrity and signal performance. For permanent installations, route the cable along cable management paths and avoid running it in parallel with high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat 5e patch cord for standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and compatible network configurations. For environments requiring higher bandwidth, shielding against electromagnetic interference, or longer runs, consider higher category cables or shielded variants. Inspect the latch and molded boot periodically and replace the cord if the connector shows physical wear or damage.
