UTP Patch Cable LYNX CS Cat5e 10 m, red

Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable LYNX CS Cat5e, 10 m, red is designed for Ethernet connections in LAN environments. The cable supports Cat5e performance, providing reliable data transmission for wired networks. It is suitable for connecting switches, routers, patch panels and network devices in offices, server rooms and home networks. The flexible jacket and standard RJ45 terminations make it convenient for patching, extending or reorganizing network ports while maintaining consistent signal integrity over the 10 m length.

Advantages

The LYNX CS Cat5e UTP patch cable offers stable performance for typical Ethernet applications up to Cat5e speeds and frequencies. Its unshielded design keeps the cable lightweight and flexible for tight routing and frequent handling. The 10 m length provides extra reach for connecting distant devices without the need for intermediary hardware, and the distinctive red jacket helps with visual identification during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers within office and data center racks
• Patch panel to network device connections in structured cabling
• Extending or reorganizing ports in home and small business networks
• Temporary network setups for testing or troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cable type: Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
• Category: Cat5e performance
• Length: 10 m
• Conductor: Copper cores (solid or stranded as typical for patch cables)
• Connector: RJ45 on both ends
• Jacket color: Red
• Typical use: Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and basic Gigabit LAN segments (within Cat5e limits)

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end of the LYNX CS Cat5e patch cable to the network port of a switch, router or patch panel and plug the other end into the target device. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For structured cabling, document the cable color and endpoints to simplify future maintenance. Verify link status on both connected devices and perform a network test if needed to confirm proper connectivity and speed.

Usage recommendations

Use the red cable for easy identification of specific circuits or network segments. Avoid running UTP cables parallel and close to mains power lines to reduce the risk of interference, and keep bend radius greater than four times the cable diameter. For permanent runs or environments with high interference, consider shielded cable types or higher category cables if higher performance or additional protection is required.
