Cable Ethernet ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 7 m Rojo

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CU PVC Ethernet Cable is a 7 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends. It supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is available in copper (CU) conductor construction with U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair, overall unshielded) design. The cable features PVC jacket material, gold-plated contacts and is supplied in a red colour.

Advantages

This ProXtend CAT5e cable is built with strain relief and a snagless latch protector to reduce connector damage during installation and use. The gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The 7 m length and bright red colour make it easy to route and identify within racks or home networks.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections for desktop PCs and laptops
• Connecting routers, switches and networked devices supporting 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Home or small office networking where a 7 m patch cable is needed

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your computer, switch or router and the other connector into the corresponding network port on the remote device. Ensure connectors click into place with the latch. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use the strain relief feature at the connector ends when aligning the cable. For best performance, keep the cable away from strong electrical interference sources.

Recommendations

Use this cable for gigabit Ethernet links up to standard CAT5e distances. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or large electric motors to minimise interference. For permanently installed cabling or environments requiring additional shielding, consider higher-specification cables.
