Patch cord TECHLY Cat5e UTP 0.5 m yellow CCA

TECHLY Patch cord Cat5e UTP 0.5 m in yellow is a short unshielded twisted-pair network cable designed for Ethernet and structured cabling installations. With Category 5e performance and a compact 0.5 m length, this patch cord is intended for use in patch panels, switches, routers and wall outlets where a short, visible connection is required. The cable uses a CCA conductor construction and a yellow outer jacket to provide clear identification in crowded cable runs.

Advantages

This Cat5e UTP patch cord provides reliable signal transmission for standard Ethernet networks over short distances and occupies minimal space behind racks and devices. The yellow jacket improves visual management and reduces the risk of accidental disconnection when multiple cables are present. The short 0.5 m length minimizes clutter and helps maintain tidy, efficient cabling layouts. The flexible outer sheath allows for easy routing in tight spaces commonly found in network cabinets and desktop setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in patch panels and switches within racks
• Linking routers or modems to nearby switches or wall outlets
• Short in-cabinet or desk-level connections where cable length should be minimal
• Color-coded cable management in small networks and office environments

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Conductor type: Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA)
• Jacket color: Yellow
• Typical use: Ethernet and structured cabling patch connections

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding ports of the devices you need to connect, ensuring a firm click to confirm proper seating. Use the 0.5 m TECHLY Cat5e patch cord for direct connections between adjacent equipment such as switch-to-switch or switch-to-router within the same rack or cabinet. Avoid stretching the cable; route it gently to prevent sharp bends that could affect signal quality. For best results, keep the cable run free from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines.

Usage recommendations

Use the yellow patch cord for visible, color-coded installations and short point-to-point connections. Verify that CCA conductor characteristics meet your network power and performance needs, especially for PoE applications; for PoE at higher power classes consider cables with solid copper conductors if required by device specifications.
