ACT Brown 5 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT IB4605 is a 5 m U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors and a PVC sheath. Offering a brown RAL 8023 colour and AWG#24 conductors, it provides reliable wired connections for home and office networking and supports typical CAT5E data rates over a 100 MHz bandwidth.

Advantages

This CAT5E patch cable combines solid AWG#24 conductors, gold-plated RJ45 plugs and a PVC sheath to ensure consistent signal transmission and corrosion resistance. Its 5 m length allows flexible placement of networked devices, while the brown RAL 8023 colour helps maintain a discrete or coordinated installation aesthetic.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers within homes or offices
• Patch panels and wall outlets in structured cabling
• Temporary or permanent network links where CAT5E performance is sufficient

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors firmly into the network ports of your devices (PC, switch, router or patch panel) until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; ensure connectors are fully seated for optimal contact. For best results, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid running parallel to power lines for long distances.

Recommendations

Use this U/UTP CAT5E cable for standard Ethernet connections up to CAT5E specifications. For higher bandwidth or Gigabit links in challenging environments, consider upgrading to CAT6 or shielded cables. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the sheath or plugs are damaged.
