ACT Brown 1 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Brown 1 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors is a 1 m networking cable designed for reliable copper-based data transmission. It uses full copper conductors and meets ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 performance requirements. The cable is U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) CAT5E, supports data rates up to 1 Gbps, and features gold-plated RJ45 connectors for consistent contact quality. The brown jacket provides a distinct color option for organized cable routing in homes, offices, or data closets.

Advantages

The cable's full copper conductors ensure low resistance and compatibility with PoE (Power over Ethernet) devices, reducing the risk of power delivery issues. Compliance with international ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 standards and the use of quality materials contribute to long-term stable network performance. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve connectivity and corrosion resistance, while the compact 1 m length helps reduce cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches, routers and patch panels within racks or small office/home networks
• PoE devices such as IP phones, wireless access points and cameras (requires full copper conductors)
• Short runs where a 1 m cable length is appropriate for tidy installations
