Ethernet patch cord UN 5e UTP 1.5 m yellow

UN UTP Cat5e Ethernet patch cord in yellow, 1.5 m length, is designed to provide a reliable copper connection between network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels and endpoints. The cable supports Category 5e performance, enabling data transmission up to Gigabit Ethernet speeds over twisted-pair copper wiring. Its flexible jacket and compact profile make it suitable for patching in racks, office workstations and home network installations where clear cable identification and space-saving routing are required.

Advantages

The patch cord offers Cat5e performance for stable Ethernet links and supports data rates commonly used in local networks. A flexible UTP construction simplifies routing in tight spaces and reduces strain on connectors. The yellow jacket provides high visibility for easy identification and colour-coded network organisation. Reliable RJ45 terminations ensure consistent contact and reduced packet loss when used within specified cabling standards.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in data closets and server racks
• Linking desktop PCs, printers and IP phones to network outlets
• Home networking and small office patching where short runs are needed
• Colour-coded cable management and quick identification of network segments

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 5e (Cat5e) unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Length: 1.5 metres
• Conductor: multi‑strand copper suitable for patch cord flexibility
• Connectors: RJ45 plug on both ends with strain relief boot
• Jacket colour: yellow
• Applications: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (Gigabit Ethernet over appropriate infrastructure)
• Typical use environment: racks, patch panels, office desks, residential networks

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network device port and the other into the corresponding port on the opposite device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and pinch points; maintain gentle bend radius around corners and secure with cable ties or organisers if needed. Verify link activity and network settings on connected equipment to confirm successful connection.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat5e patch cord for short to moderate patch runs within the same wiring closet or room and avoid mixing with higher-category backbone cabling when maximum throughput is required. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic interference sources and replace if connector damage or severe wear is observed.
