ACT White 2 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT White 2 meter U/UTP CAT5E RJ45 patch cable is a 2 m network cable designed for connecting computers, switches, routers and other Ethernet-enabled devices. It uses U/UTP CAT5E construction with AWG 24 conductors, a PVC sheath and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. The cable supports up to 100 MHz bandwidth and is finished in RAL 9016 white for a neutral appearance.

Advantages

This CAT5E patch cable provides reliable high-speed data transmission up to 100 MHz and solid compatibility with standard Ethernet equipment. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts enhance contact quality and corrosion resistance, while the AWG 24 conductors and PVC sheath ensure consistent signal integrity and mechanical durability. The 2 m length balances reach and cable management for home and office setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs to switches or routers
• Patch panel to network device connections
• Short to medium length Ethernet runs in homes and offices
• Structured cabling where a white finish is preferred

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of a device and the other connector into the corresponding port on a switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of electromagnetic interference, and secure it with cable ties or clips as needed for neat installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT5E cable for links up to 100 meters within a structured network. Avoid placing the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and keep bend radius greater than four times the cable diameter. Replace the cable if connectors are damaged or if transmission errors occur.
