• Connecting computers to network wall outlets
• Linking routers, switches, and modems
• Connecting network devices in home offices
• Organizing patch panels in small network cabinets

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for outdoor use or environments exposed to extreme temperatures, as the standard PVC jacket is not weather-resistant. Additionally, it is not suitable for high-interference industrial areas where shielded cabling is required to prevent electromagnetic interference.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.5e
• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Length: 1 meter
• Jacket material: PVC
• Color: Red

How to use

To use the patch cord, simply insert the RJ45 connector at either end of the cable into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your networking devices. Ensure that the connector clicks securely into place to establish a firm connection. The cable is plug-and-play, meaning no additional configuration or software is required for it to function immediately upon connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific setup to avoid excess slack
• Ensure your network equipment supports Cat.5e standards
• Check if your environment requires shielded cables for high-interference areas

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or placing heavy objects on top of it, as this can damage the internal copper wires and degrade signal quality.
