Why choose it

The snagless design prevents the RJ45 locking tab from breaking off when pulling the cable through cable management, extending the cable's service life. The unshielded twisted pair construction is suitable for most office environments where electromagnetic interference is low, and the yellow jacket makes it easy to identify connections for specific networks or VLANs.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting workstations to wall outlets in offices
• Patching between switches and patch panels in data cabinets
• Colour-coding network segments for easier troubleshooting

The cable supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet up to 55 metres, but at 1.5 m it can handle full 10 Gbps speeds with appropriate equipment. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks.
