Patch cable SOLARIX C5E-155YE-0.5MB UTP 0.5 m PVC Yellow

SOLARIX C5E-155YE-0.5MB UTP 0.5 m PVC Yellow is a Category 5e patch cable designed for short-range Ethernet connections. The cable uses unshielded twisted pair (UTP) conductors and a flexible PVC jacket in yellow, providing a compact and visible link between network devices. With a 0.5 m length, this patch cord is intended for neat, color-coded cabling in racks, patch panels, wall outlets and desktop network setups where minimal cable slack and clear identification are required.

Advantages

This Category 5e patch cable delivers stable transmission for typical Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps over short distances when used within its specification. The 0.5 m length reduces excess cable in server cabinets and at workstations, improving airflow and organization. The yellow PVC jacket offers clear visual identification for cable management and troubleshooting. Gold-plated connectors ensure good contact and corrosion resistance in standard indoor environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to patch panels in server racks
• Short links between routers and networked devices in offices
• Desktop and workstation network connections with color-coded cabling
• Patch bays and structured cabling where minimal slack is required

Key specifications

• Category: 5e (Cat5e)
• Cable type: UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket material: PVC
• Color: Yellow
• Connector type: RJ45 (8P8C) with gold-plated contacts
• Typical supported speeds: up to 1000 Mbps at short range
• Application environment: indoor, structured cabling

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the Ethernet port of a switch, router, patch panel or network device and insert the other connector into the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress. Use the yellow color to match your site’s cabling scheme and place the cable within cable management trays or ties to maintain an organized layout.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radii larger than the cable diameter. Use the 0.5 m length for close-proximity connections inside racks or between adjacent devices; for longer runs select a cable with a suitable category rating and length. Inspect connectors for debris before installation and replace the cable if insulation or connectors are damaged.
