Patchcord UTP 8-conductor LP, RJ45 plug-to-plug, 0.5 m, CCA, green

LP patchcord UTP 8-conductor with RJ45 plug-to-plug terminations is a short network cable designed for connecting Ethernet devices over short distances. With a 0.5 m length and CCA (copper-clad aluminium) conductors, this green cable provides a compact and economical solution for linking switches, patch panels, routers and network interfaces in home or office environments where full shielded cabling is not required.

Advantages

The cable uses unshielded twisted pair wiring with eight conductors arranged to support standard Ethernet signalling. CCA conductors reduce weight and cost while maintaining adequate conductivity for short links. Terminated with standard RJ45 plugs on both ends, the patchcord is plug-and-play compatible with common network ports and patch panels. Its short 0.5 m length minimises clutter in rack or desktop setups and helps maintain tidy cable management.

Suitable for

• Short Ethernet connections between switches or routers and patch panels
• Desktop connections to network interfaces on PCs, printers or VoIP phones
• Patching in home networks, small offices and equipment racks
• Temporary test connections and network troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cable type: Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
• Conductors: 8 conductors, copper-clad aluminium (CCA)
• Connectors: RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug
• Length: 0.5 m
• Colour: green
• Typical use: Ethernet patching for short runs

How to use

Insert each RJ45 plug into the corresponding network port until the connector latches. Use the patchcord to connect ports on switches, routers, patch panels or end devices for Ethernet communication. For tidy installations, route the cable alongside other patchcords or through cable management panels to avoid strain on the connectors. Verify link lights or network status on connected devices to confirm a working connection.

Usage recommendations

Use this 0.5 m CCA UTP patchcord for short, non-critical runs where reduced weight and cost are priorities. Avoid using CCA cables for long-distance connections or in installations that demand maximum conductivity and long-term durability. For environments with high electromagnetic interference or where higher performance class guarantees are required, consider shielded or pure copper alternatives.
