Ethernet cable Omnitronic CAT‑5 1 m, black

Omnitronic CAT‑5 Ethernet cable, 1 m length in black, is a standard RJ45‑terminated network cable designed for wired connections between computers, routers, switches and audio/video equipment supporting 100BASE‑TX Ethernet. The cable provides a simple, single‑cable solution for short‑range network links where stable data transfer and flexibility of placement are required. Its compact length and common RJ45 connectors make it suitable for tidy installations in home, studio or small office environments.

Advantages

The cable supports standard CAT‑5 performance for Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and ensures consistent signal transmission over short distances. Its terminated RJ45 plugs provide plug‑and‑play connectivity without additional assembly. The 1 m length reduces cable clutter and signal attenuation compared with longer runs, and the black jacket offers a discreet appearance that blends with most setups. The cable is compatible with a wide range of network devices that accept 8P8C RJ45 connectors.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to routers or switches over short distances
• Linking audio/video devices and networked media players in studios
• Temporary or permanent patch‑panel and patch‑lead connections in small offices
• Testing and troubleshooting network ports where a short reference cable is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT‑5 (Fast Ethernet 100BASE‑TX compatible)
• Length: 1 meter
• Connector type: RJ45 (8P8C) terminated on both ends
• Color: black outer jacket
• Typical uses: Ethernet data communication, network patching, device interconnect

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network port of the source device (for example a computer or router) and insert the other RJ45 connector into the target device (switch, modem, or networked AV equipment). Ensure connectors click into place and that device ports are enabled and configured for 100 Mbps or auto‑negotiation. For optimal performance avoid tight bends or kinks in the cable and do not run the cable parallel to high‑voltage power lines to reduce interference.

Usage recommendations

Use this 1 m CAT‑5 cable for short, direct connections where Fast Ethernet performance is sufficient; choose higher‑category cables (CAT‑5e, CAT‑6) for higher bandwidth or longer runs. Store the cable coiled loosely and avoid sharp bends to preserve connector and conductor integrity.
