DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP Network Cable 20m Grey CCA (DC-C51-200)

Running a cable from your router to a desktop in the next room? This 20-metre DSIT CAT 5e patch cable reaches across offices, workshops, or living spaces without forcing you to rearrange furniture. The grey PVC jacket blends into baseboards and cable trays, while the unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction keeps interference low for everyday gigabit networking.

Why choose it

CCA conductors offer a cost-effective alternative to solid copper while maintaining reliable performance for typical home and small-office networks. The cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds, so file transfers, video streaming, and VoIP calls run smoothly. The snagless RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs during installation, and the flexible PVC jacket makes routing around corners easier.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting a PC or laptop to a router, switch, or modem
• Extending a network to a printer, NAS, or smart TV
• Temporary setups for events, labs, or test benches
• Replacing worn-out or short patch cables in structured cabling

Good to know

This cable is unshielded (U/UTP), so avoid running it alongside high-voltage power lines or near strong electromagnetic sources. For permanent in-wall installations, check local building codes regarding CCA and PVC jacket ratings. The 20-metre length gives you flexibility without excessive slack, and the grey colour stays discreet in most environments.
