ACT Grey 1.5 meter F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT IB7151 F/UTP CAT5E patch cable in grey is a 1.5 meter network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It uses foil shielding over the pairs (F/UTP) and AWG#26 conductors with 50 µ gold-plated contacts, enclosed in a PVC sheath. The cable is suitable for connecting network devices in home and office environments, providing reliable data transmission at CAT5E performance levels.

Advantages

The cable combines F/UTP shielding for reduced electromagnetic interference with AWG#26 conductors for consistent signal transfer. Dual RJ-45 connectors and 50 µ gold-plated contacts ensure stable plug connections and improved corrosion resistance. The 1.5 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop and rack setups while the grey PVC sheath provides a neutral appearance.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers
• Patch panel to wall outlet connections
• Home and small office network cabling
• Temporary or permanent workstation connections

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device (computer, switch, router) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the network equipment or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and stress on the connectors; secure with cable ties if necessary. For best performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use this F/UTP CAT5E patch cable for standard Ethernet connections up to CAT5E specifications. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or temperatures outside the cable's rated range; inspect gold contacts periodically and replace the cable if physical damage or significant performance degradation is observed.
