ACT Green 5 meter F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Green 5 meter F/UTP CAT5E patch cable (IB7705) is a 5 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It uses F/UTP (foil screened, unshielded twisted pair) construction compatible with CAT5E standards to support reliable high-speed data transmission. The cable comes in green (Pantone 342C) and features 26 AWG conductors with 50 µin gold-plated contacts, housed in an LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen) sheath for reduced smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire.

Advantages

This F/UTP CAT5E patch cable minimizes electromagnetic interference thanks to foil screening while remaining flexible for typical office and home installations. Gold-plated contacts ensure stable connections and improved corrosion resistance. The LSZH sheath reduces hazardous fumes, and the 5 m length provides ample reach for most patching and workstation setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in offices and home networks
• Patching between wall outlets and network equipment
• Temporary or semi-permanent cabling where a 5 m length is required

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (for example, switch, router or computer). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking clip engages. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and tension; keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic noise for optimal signal integrity. For rack or cabinet installations, secure the cable with appropriate ties or organizers to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this F/UTP CAT5E patch cable for typical 100BASE-TX and Gigabit Ethernet connections within the specified CAT5E limits, and avoid running alongside high-voltage power lines to reduce interference risk.
