Reliable 10/100/1000Base-T(X) connectivity

This cable uses Cat5e U/UTP construction to deliver stable Gigabit Ethernet performance. Because it is unshielded twisted pair, it is suitable for typical office and home environments. So you can expect dependable connectivity for standard network tasks. However, check your local interference levels if running near power cables.

Durable snagless and molded boot design

Both snagless and molded cable boots are specified. This helps protect the RJ-45 clips during installation and removal. So the connector seating remains secure in patch panels and wall plates. Because the boots are molded, strain relief is improved at the connector junction.

Gold-plated contacts and stranded conductors

The connector contacts are gold-plated for corrosion resistance and reliable signal transfer. The conductors are stranded, which offers flexibility for routing. However, solid core is typically used for fixed in-wall runs. Also, confirm your patch panel or keystone jack accepts stranded 24 AWG conductors if you plan to punch down.

10-metre length for flexible positioning

The 10 m length suits links between a server rack and nearby workstations. It also fits runs between a patch panel and a desktop PC. Because it is a fixed length, plan your cable management to avoid excess slack. However, if you need longer runs, consider bulk cable and trunking.

RoHS compliance and UK installation considerations

This cable carries RoHS compliance certificates. However, the input does not specify UKCA or CE marking. So please confirm regional compliance for your installation. Also, verify environmental requirements for your site.
