Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT6 RJ-45 U/UTP 5M Blue

The ProXtend CAT6 U/UTP CCA Ethernet Cable (5 m) with RJ-45 connectors is designed to provide a cost-effective wired network connection. Constructed with copper-clad aluminum (CCA) strands and an AWG of 26, the cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks and offers a data transfer rate up to 1000 Mbit/s. The cable is finished in blue and features gold-plated contacts for improved contact reliability.

Advantages

This ProXtend CAT6 cable combines CCA conductors and U/UTP unshielded design to deliver an economical solution for Gigabit Ethernet. Strain relief and latch protection are integrated to increase connector durability and to secure the plug during installation. The gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and help maintain stable signal contact over time.

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 plug into the network port of your device or switch until the latch clicks. Use the cable to connect computers, routers, switches, or other network equipment that supports 10/100/1000 Mbit/s. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and do not exceed the recommended installation length for structured cabling runs in your environment.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources (large power supplies, motors) and avoid routing it alongside mains power cables. For critical or long-distance installations, consider using pure copper (AWG) cables or shielded variants if EMI is a concern.
