ACT Brown 3 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT IB4603 CAT5E patch cable in brown is a 3 meter U/UTP network cable designed for connecting devices in local networks. It uses AWG 24 conductors, a PVC sheath and supports up to 100 MHz bandwidth. The cable is terminated with high-quality RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable signal transfer and corrosion resistance.

Advantages

The U/UTP construction reduces external interference without the need for individual pair shielding, while the AWG 24 conductors provide standard electrical characteristics for Cat5e performance. The gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve conductivity and durability, and the 3 m length offers flexibility for typical home and office setups. The brown RAL 8023 colour helps with visual identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in LANs
• Patch panel to wall outlet connections
• Home networking and small office setups
• Temporary or permanent cable runs up to 3 m

Key specifications

• Standard: CAT5E
• Length: 3 m
• Bandwidth: 100 MHz
• Conductors: AWG 24
• Sheath material: PVC
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded overall)
• Connector: RJ45 with gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Brown (RAL 8023)

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of a device and the other into a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference for optimal performance.

Recommendations

For best results use this CAT5E U/UTP cable for connections up to 3 m in typical home and office environments. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or large electric motors to minimize potential interference.
