ACT Green 3 meter F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Green 3 meter F/UTP CAT5E RJ45 patch cable provides a 3 m connection between network devices using RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable is screened (F/UTP) and constructed with AWG 26 conductors, 50 µ gold-plated contacts and a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) sheath. Its green colour (Pantone 342C) makes it easy to identify in structured cabling setups while supporting stable data transmission for home and office networks.

Advantages

Screened F/UTP design reduces external interference and improves signal integrity compared with unshielded cables. AWG 26 conductors provide reliable electrical performance for CAT5E applications, while 50 µ gold-plated contacts ensure durable connector performance and corrosion resistance. The LSZH sheath minimises hazardous smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The 3 m length balances reach and cable management, and the green colour simplifies installation and identification.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers within home and small office networks
• Patching between patch panels and network devices in wiring closets
• Temporary or permanent connections where a 3 m cable length is appropriate
• Environments requiring LSZH cable jackets for reduced toxic emissions

Key specifications

• Cable type: F/UTP CAT5E
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Conductors: AWG 26
• Contacts: 50 µ gold-plated
• Sheath: LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen)
• Colour: Green (Pantone 342C)

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device (PC, switch, router or patch panel) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference sources when possible. For structured installations, secure the cable with appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

Use this CAT5E F/UTP patch cable for standard 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet connections where CAT5E performance is sufficient. For installations with strong electromagnetic interference or longer runs requiring higher bandwidth, consider higher-category or fully shielded cables as needed.
