DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP Network Patch Cable, 0.25 m, Yellow, CCA, RJ45, Gold-Plated, PVC Jacket

Short patch cables often get overlooked, yet a reliable 0.25-meter link can be the difference between a tidy network rack and a tangle of excess cable. The DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP cable in yellow solves that problem with a compact, high-performance connection for tight spaces. Its copper-clad aluminum conductors keep costs down while still supporting Gigabit Ethernet, making it a practical choice for everyday networking.

Who is it for

This cable suits IT technicians, office managers, and home users who need short, dependable connections between patch panels, switches, and devices in confined areas. It is also ideal for color-coded network organization, where yellow can designate a specific VLAN, department, or uplink.

Main features

• Category 5e performance with up to 100 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps data transfer rate
• U/UTP unshielded twisted pair construction for flexibility and easy routing in tight spaces
• Copper-clad aluminum (CCA) conductors offer a cost-effective alternative to solid copper
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors resist corrosion and ensure reliable contact
• Durable PVC jacket in bright yellow for high visibility and easy identification
• Compact 0.25-meter length reduces clutter and improves airflow in racks

Tips

When using CCA cables, avoid sharp bends and repeated flexing, as the aluminum core is more brittle than pure copper. For permanent installations, ensure the cable is not under tension. The yellow jacket can be used to color-code your network for easier troubleshooting.
