Practical Networking with the Cables Direct Economy 1m RJ-45 to RJ-45 Cat5e CCA Ethernet Cable – Blue

This cable suits routine data transfer between active networking hardware. It features four unshielded twisted pairs to support stable communication. For example, you can patch a wall socket directly to a desktop workstation. In practice, it keeps standard office traffic moving smoothly without fuss.

Moulded RJ-45 Connectors for Secure Port Retention

Each end carries a factory-moulded male RJ-45 plug. These moulded boots reinforce the cable against strain and repeated handling. Also, the protective boot design prevents latch damage during routing. As a result, you maintain a snug, dependable fit inside any standard Ethernet port.

Efficient CCA Conductors and Power Delivery Guidelines

We construct this cable using Copper-Clad Aluminium conductors. This design offers a lightweight build for straightforward, cost-effective data patching. However, CCA wiring is not suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) installations. So, we advise deploying this cable purely for standard, unpowered data connections.

Pre-Installation Considerations for Your Network

• Confirm your target hardware features standard RJ-45 Ethernet sockets.
• Confirm a 1-metre run provides sufficient reach without placing tension on the connectors.
• Confirm your setup requires pure data transmission rather than PoE power delivery.
