Ethernet Patch Cable UTP Cat5e EMOS 2 m with 2x RJ45 Connectors

EMOS UTP Cat5e Ethernet patch cable, 2 m with two RJ45 connectors, provides a wired network link for devices supporting Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet over the Cat5e standard. The cable is intended for short to medium runs in home, office and small business networks, offering a straightforward solution for connecting routers, switches, PCs, NAS units and other Ethernet-enabled equipment. The flexible sheath and compact RJ45 plugs simplify installation in tight spaces and behind furniture or equipment racks.

Advantages

The Cat5e construction supports data rates up to Gigabit Ethernet where infrastructure and connected devices allow, while maintaining backward compatibility with 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet. UTP (unshielded twisted pair) design reduces crosstalk for stable signal transmission in typical indoor environments. The 2 m length balances reach and cable management, reducing excess slack and improving airflow around network devices. Gold-plated contact surfaces on the RJ45 connectors improve conductivity and corrosion resistance for reliable long-term connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting a router to a switch or modem within a small office or home network
• Linking a desktop PC or workstation to a wired LAN port
• Connecting networked printers, NAS devices or media players to a switch
• Temporary or permanent patching in structured cabling panels for small racks

Key specifications

• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Category: Cat5e, suitable for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet
• Length: 2 meters
• Connectors: RJ45 on both ends, 8P8C configuration
• Conductor: stranded copper for flexibility
• Jacket: flexible PVC outer sheath for indoor use

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your router, switch or modem and the other connector into the Ethernet port of your computer or network device. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure mechanical and electrical connection. If the network does not establish automatically, check network adapter settings on the connected device and verify link/activity LEDs on the network hardware. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, heavy compression or proximity to strong electromagnetic sources to maintain signal quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results in home or office environments, use this Cat5e cable for runs up to 2 meters between devices; for longer distances, consider higher-category cabling or appropriate cable lengths. Avoid running the cable alongside mains power lines for extended lengths to minimize potential interference. When installing in equipment racks or behind desks, secure the cable with ties or clips to prevent strain on connectors.
