Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 0.3m Black

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP Ethernet Cable (0.3 m) with RJ-45 connectors on both ends provides a compact, durable connection for network devices. Available in copper and copper-clad aluminum variants, this black cable features gold-plated contacts and U/UTP construction to support data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s while offering reinforced strain relief and snagless latch protection.

Advantages

The cable is designed for long-term use with reinforced strain relief and a snagless latch to prevent damage during installation. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and resist corrosion. U/UTP construction and compatibility with 10/100/1000Base-T(X) ensure reliable gigabit Ethernet performance in short-distance connections.

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the latch clicks.

Ensure connectors are properly seated and avoid sharp bends to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs short and avoid running alongside high-power electrical cables. Choose the copper variant if lower resistance and slightly better signal integrity are required for your setup.
