Why choose it

This patch cable meets CAT 5e specifications for Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring smooth video streaming, online gaming, and large file transfers. The stranded construction provides flexibility for routing around desks and through cable management, while the pink jacket makes identification easy in crowded network setups. Copper-clad aluminum conductors offer a cost-effective alternative to solid copper without compromising performance for short-distance runs.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting computers to network switches or routers in home and office environments
• Linking IP cameras, access points, or VoIP phones to a LAN
• Extending network reach for temporary setups or workstations
• Color-coded network organization for different departments or devices

Good to know

The cable is compatible with 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T networks. It uses 8 conductors (4 twisted pairs) and supports standard RJ45 connections. The PVC jacket provides durability and flexibility. Note that CCA conductors are not recommended for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications; for PoE, solid copper cables are advised.
