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

The ACT Pink 5 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable (model IB4805, EAN 8716065135640) is a 5 m network cable in a vibrant pink PVC sheath. It uses four AWG#24 conductors and supports CAT5E performance up to 100 MHz. The cable is terminated with high-quality RJ45 connectors featuring gold plating for improved contact and corrosion resistance, intended for reliable data transmission in home and office networks.

Advantages

The cable combines CAT5E performance with a flexible PVC sheath and gold-plated RJ45 contacts to provide consistent connectivity and reduced signal loss. Its distinctive pink colour (RAL 4003) makes cable identification easier in crowded installations. With a 5 m length and U/UTP construction, it is suitable for typical Ethernet connections while remaining affordable and straightforward to deploy.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home or small office networks
• Patch-panel to switch or wall socket to device connections
• Temporary or permanent cabling where a 5 m length is appropriate

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device (computer, switch, router) and the other end into the corresponding port on the network equipment or wall socket. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference where possible.

Recommendations

Use this CAT5E patch cable for standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and compatible Gigabit setups where CAT5E is sufficient. For runs exceeding typical patch lengths, environments with high interference, or where higher performance is required, consider shielded cables or CAT6/CAT6A alternatives.
