Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 10m Blue

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CU PVC Ethernet Cable (10 m, blue) features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and offers data transfer up to 1000 Mbit/s. Constructed with unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) copper conductors and gold-plated contacts, it provides reliable wired connectivity for home and office networks. The cable is available in copper and copper-clad aluminum variants and comes in multiple lengths and colors to match different installation needs.

Advantages

Reinforced strain relief and a snagless latch design protect the RJ-45 connectors during installation and everyday use. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networking standards and is suitable for gigabit Ethernet connections. PVC jacket construction offers basic mechanical protection and flexibility for typical indoor installations.

Suitable for

• Wired home network connections (routers, switches, PCs)
• Office desktop and small business network setups
• Connecting networked devices such as printers, NAS, and IP cameras
• Temporary or permanent indoor Ethernet installations

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your network devices (for example, router to PC or switch to NAS). Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends or pinching and maintain bend radius recommended for Ethernet cables to preserve signal quality. For permanent installs, secure the cable along walls or under desks using appropriate clips or cable ties.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference (large motors, fluorescent lighting drivers, or high-power electrical cables). Use copper (CU) variant where maximum conductivity is required; consider copper-clad aluminum only for cost-sensitive, short-run installations.
