Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 U/UTP 0.5m Orange

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP Ethernet Cable (0.5 m) with RJ-45 connectors and gold-plated contacts provides a reliable copper connection for wired networks. Designed for durability, the cable includes strain relief and a snagless latch to protect the connector during installation and everyday use. Available in copper and copper-clad aluminum conductors and multiple colors and lengths, this ProXtend cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks and achieves data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s.

Advantages

The cable combines U/UTP construction for reduced interference, gold-plated RJ-45 contacts for consistent signal transfer, and reinforced strain relief with a snagless latch for improved connector protection. Its compact 0.5 m length and bright orange color make it easy to route and identify within patch panels or near network equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches or routers over short distances
• Patching between network ports in server rooms or home offices
• Temporary or permanent connections where clear cable identification is needed

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network ports on your devices until the latch clicks. Route the 0.5 m cable to avoid sharp bends and stress on the connector ends. For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use the ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP cable for short patching runs and clearly marked connections; select copper conductor variants when maximum long-term conductivity is required and choose copper-clad aluminum if a lighter or lower-cost option is acceptable.
