Patch cable helos 205258 RJ-45 male to male, 3 m, Cat unspecified

Helos Patch Cable 205258 is a ready-made network lead with RJ-45 male connectors at both ends and a length of 3 m. Designed for connecting Ethernet-capable devices, it provides a simple physical link for data transmission between switches, routers, patch panels, network interface ports and other equipment that uses standard 8P8C (RJ-45) connectors. The cable is supplied by helos and intended for basic home and office networking tasks where a pre-terminated, reliable connection is required.

Advantages

The helos 205258 cable offers a pre-terminated solution that removes the need for on-site crimping or custom assembly. With RJ-45 male connectors on both ends and a standard 3 m length, it simplifies cable routing and device connections in racks, wall outlets and desktop setups. Being a manufactured patch cord, it ensures consistent termination quality and predictable performance compared with improvised or self-made cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in small office and home networks
• Linking patch panels to network switches in rack or cabinet installations
• Temporary or permanent Ethernet connections for printers, IP cameras and access points
• Cable runs where a 3 m pre-terminated RJ-45 cable provides the correct reach

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male
• Cable length: 3 metres
• Intended use: Ethernet networking and device interconnection
• Manufacturer: helos
• Delivery form: ready-made patch cable with pre-terminated connectors

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of the first device and the other plug to the Ethernet port of the second device until the connector clicks into place. Ensure both devices are powered and configured for network communication. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain near the connector ends. For structured cabling, insert the cable between patch panel ports and switch ports as required and verify the link status via device LEDs or network diagnostics.

Usage recommendations

Use the helos 205258 patch cable for short to medium-length indoor Ethernet runs where a 3 m patch lead is appropriate. Avoid exposing the cable to moisture, excessive heat or strong electromagnetic interference. Replace the cable if the jacket or connectors are visibly damaged or if link errors persist despite correct device configuration.
