This patch cable uses RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts. The conductors are stranded for flexibility. The snagless, molded boot helps protect the clip during frequent plug and unplug cycles. It is built with a PVC jacket and meets RoHS compliance.

Reliable 1 Gigabit connectivity

This cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks. It delivers stable performance for office PCs, printers, and IP devices. Because it is unshielded (U/UTP), it is best for short indoor runs. In practice, this suits clean, low-interference environments.

Designed for tidy rack and desk use

The 0.5 m length is ideal for patch panels and switches. It keeps cable runs short and neat. Because the boot is snagless and molded, the clip is less likely to catch. So, you get fewer damaged connectors during reconfigurations.

Identified by colour for fast maintenance

The yellow jacket helps you trace a connection quickly. This supports faster troubleshooting in busy cabinets. For example, you can colour-code by VLAN or floor. Also, it reduces downtime during planned changes.

Gold-plated contacts for a clean signal

The connectors feature gold plating on the contacts. This helps maintain a stable electrical connection over time. Because the conductors are stranded, the cable remains flexible. In practice, this makes it easier to route in tight spaces.

RoHS compliance for UK procurement

The product carries RoHS compliance certificates. This indicates restricted use of certain substances. However, UKCA or CE marking is not specified. Please confirm the relevant compliance with the seller if required for your project.
