ACT Yellow 20 meter U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT U/UTP CAT5E Patch Cable IB5820 in yellow is a 20‑meter network patch cable designed for structured cabling and device interconnection. It features gold‑plated RJ45 contacts and PVC sheath, delivering CAT5E performance with a 100 MHz bandwidth for Ethernet and data transmission over horizontal links. The cable is 100% tested and comes with a five‑year warranty, with ACT specifications verified by an independent third‑party certification institute.

Advantages

This U/UTP CAT5E patch cable provides reliable 100 MHz bandwidth for standard Ethernet applications. Gold‑plated 50 µ contacts improve connector durability and contact quality. The PVC sheath offers mechanical protection and easy handling during installation. All cables are individually tested to ensure performance consistency, and the product is backed by a five‑year warranty and third‑party verified ACT specifications.

Suitable for

• Office and home Ethernet connections (10/100 Mbps)
• Patch panels and switches in structured cabling
• Temporary network setups and relocations
• Visible cable runs where color coding is needed

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to a network device (switch, router, computer or patch panel) and the other connector to the corresponding port on the remote device. Lay the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference to maintain signal integrity. Use the yellow color to identify the link in a patch panel or cable tray. For best results, keep cable length within standards for horizontal cabling and avoid kinking the cable during installation.

Recommendations

Use the ACT U/UTP CAT5E IB5820 for standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet links; for Gigabit Ethernet consider CAT5E installations with appropriate cabling practices and shorter consolidated link segments. Store and install the cable at temperatures and conditions recommended for PVC‑sheathed network cables to preserve insulation and performance.
