Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 1.5M Blue

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP copper Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors is 1.5 m long and designed for reliable wired network connections. Constructed with copper conductors and PVC jacket, the cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 plugs and reinforced strain relief with snagless latch protection increase connector durability and reduce the risk of damage during installation.

Advantages

This ProXtend CAT5e cable combines reinforced strain relief and snagless latch protection for extended mechanical reliability. Gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and signal transfer at the connector interface. Available in copper and copper-clad aluminum variants and multiple colors and lengths, the cable offers flexibility to match different network setups and installation needs.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops and network printers to routers or switches
• Home and small office wired LAN installations
• Patch panel connections in small network racks
• Temporary network setups requiring easy-to-handle, snagless cables

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your devices (for example, router, switch, PC or network printer) until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use the reinforced strain relief to reduce stress at connector ends. For patch panel or rack installations, insert the connector fully into the appropriate port and secure cable routing to prevent accidental unplugging.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, choose the copper (CU) variant when maximum conductivity is required; use appropriate cable lengths to minimise excess slack and avoid electromagnetic interference by keeping Ethernet cables away from high-voltage power lines.
