connektgear 3m RJ45 CAT5e UTP Network Cable – White

Connektgear 3m RJ45 CAT5e UTP Stranded Flush Moulded Network Cable – 24AWG – White | Reliable Fast Ethernet Connectivity

This white RJ45 patch lead connects devices to a network using copper infrastructure. The connektgear 3m RJ45 CAT5e UTP Stranded Flush Moulded Network Cable – 24AWG – White suits basic office and home setups. It supports 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet speeds. The cable is U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) and uses stranded conductors for flexibility. Gold-plated contacts help maintain reliable connections. It is plug and play for simple installation. The PVC jacket and snagless boots protect the connectors during use. This cable is REACH and RoHS compliant. Always verify your network equipment compatibility before purchase.

Key Connectivity and Performance

This cable uses RJ45 male connectors at both ends. It follows Cat5e standards for 100 MHz performance. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors suit frequent movement or short runs. Gold plating on the contacts reduces corrosion. The cable supports IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u networking standards. It is designed for 10/100Base-T(X) Ethernet. However, it does not include shielded connectors. Verify your environment requires unshielded UTP. In practice, this cable is ideal for linking PCs, printers, or switches.

Physical Design and Durability

The PVC jacket provides basic protection for the internal conductors. A snagless boot prevents the clip from catching on surfaces. A molded boot adds strain relief at the connector junction. The cable colour is white for tidy cable management. The total length is 3 metres. This suits desk-to-floor runs or patch panel links. Package weight is minimal at 3.5 g. The bag packaging keeps the cable clean until use. Confirm the cable length fits your specific layout.

Installation and Compatibility

This cable is plug and play. No drivers or software are required. It connects standard RJ45 ports on routers, switches, or PCs. The cable is unshielded (U/UTP). It may not suit high-interference environments. Confirm your installation area is appropriate for UTP. The connectors are male RJ45 on both ends. This cable does not include a UK plug or mains power. It is a data cable only. Always check your device port type before ordering.
