Microconnect UTP501 Cable de red gris 1 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

MicroConnect UTP501 is a 1 m Cat5e U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends, designed for connecting computers, routers, switches and patch panels. The cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s while meeting Cat5e electrical characteristics (tested up to 100 MHz) and is backwards compatible with Cat5. A grey jacket and latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs make the cable suitable for home and small office installations where space is limited.

Advantages

The cable provides a reliable wired connection with Cat5e performance, plug-and-play RJ-45 terminations and latch protection to reduce connector damage during installation. It is lightweight and flexible, suitable for routing through patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets, and is compatible with existing Cat5 infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to routers or switches
• Linking modems, patch panels and keystone jacks
• Home networks and small office LANs
• Entertainment devices requiring wired Ethernet

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 plug into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices (computer, router, switch or wall outlet). Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Route the cable through patch panels or keystone jacks as required, taking care not to bend the cable sharply near the connectors. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines.

Recommendations

Use the MicroConnect UTP501 for short permanent or temporary connections where Cat5e performance is sufficient. Inspect the RJ-45 latches before installation and replace the cable if the connector is damaged. For runs longer than typical office distances or for higher-performance requirements, consider Cat6 or higher-rated cabling.
