Patchcord cable LP UTP 8‑core plug‑to‑plug 0.5 m CCA black

LP UTP patchcord with 8 conductors and plug‑to‑plug connectors, 0.5 m in length, features a black flexible jacket and CCA (copper‑clad aluminum) conductors. The cable is intended for short Ethernet links between network hardware such as switches, routers and patch panels. Its compact 0.5 m length minimises excess cabling in patch cabinets and desktop setups while providing standard UTP unshielded connectivity for typical LAN patching needs.

Advantages

The patchcord provides a compact, flexible connection option for short-distance Ethernet patching. CCA conductors offer a cost-effective alternative to solid copper while maintaining basic signal transmission for typical home and office networking. The plug‑to‑plug design ensures quick, tool-free installation and the UTP construction keeps the cable lightweight and easy to route in tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Short Ethernet connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Patching in network racks and wall-mounted panels where space is limited
• Desktop and small office LAN setups
• Temporary network installations and testing

Key specifications

• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Number of conductors: 8 (4 pairs)
• Conductor material: copper‑clad aluminum (CCA)
• Connector type: RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket colour: black
• Intended use: Ethernet/LAN patching

How to use

Insert each RJ45 plug into the corresponding network port on devices such as switches, routers or patch panels until the plug clicks into place. Use the 0.5 m patchcord to bridge adjacent ports or to connect devices in close proximity to reduce cable clutter. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors; maintain gentle curves to preserve the integrity of the twisted pairs and optimise signal quality.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance in structured cabling, use this short CCA patchcord for intra-rack or short desktop connections. Do not use for power-over-Ethernet (PoE) at high power levels in critical applications where voltage drop or increased heating could be a concern. Store and route the cable away from high-interference sources and avoid excessive mechanical stress on the connectors.
