EXSYS EX-K6180-2 Cat.5e FTP Patch Cable, RJ45, Grey, 2 m

Gigabit-ready and built for reliable everyday networking, this EXSYS patch cable delivers up to 1000 Mbps over a 2-metre run. The Cat.5e FTP construction with gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensures consistent, high-speed connections for PCs, switches, routers, and more.

Overview

The EXSYS EX-K6180-2 is a 2-metre grey Cat.5e patch cable with foil shielding (F/UTP) to protect against electromagnetic interference. It features stranded copper conductors (AWG 26/7) for flexibility and durability, and molded strain-relief boots to prevent damage at the connector ends. The cable is wired to TIA/EIA 568B and supports frequencies up to 100 MHz, making it ideal for Gigabit Ethernet networks.

What stands out

• FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external noise for stable performance.
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors (3µm) resist corrosion and ensure low contact resistance.
• Stranded copper conductors offer excellent flexibility, perfect for tight spaces.
• Molded strain relief protects the cable from bending stress at the plug.
• RoHS compliant, meeting strict environmental standards.
