LANBERG Cat5e U/UTP RJ-45 Patch Cable PCU5-10CC-1500-S, 15 m, Grey, CCA, 26 AWG, 100 MHz

LANBERG PCU5-10CC-1500-S Cat5e U/UTP RJ-45 15 m Grey is a 15-metre Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable network connections in home and office environments. The cable uses Category 5e specification with unshielded U/UTP pair construction and factory-terminated RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Its grey outer jacket provides a neutral appearance for tidy installations behind desks, racks or along walls, while the cable supports standard Ethernet speeds and interoperability with routers, switches and patch panels.

Advantages

The U/UTP Cat5e construction minimises crosstalk between pairs while remaining flexible and easy to route in confined spaces. Pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors ensure quick plug-and-play installation without the need for termination tools. At 15 m length the cable covers typical distances between networking equipment in small offices, living rooms or server cabinets and the grey jacket helps conceal the cable in most interior environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops and network printers to a router or switch
• Linking switches to patch panels in small server cabinets
• Temporary or permanent Ethernet runs in home offices and corporate workstations

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e
• Cable construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs)
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, factory-terminated
• Colour: Grey outer jacket
• Compatible with: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet standards (backward compatible)

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on network devices such as a router, switch, patch panel or computer. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable away from large sources of electromagnetic interference and use cable management accessories where needed to maintain a tidy installation. For fixed installations, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force that could damage the cable or connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, keep the cable run within recommended length limits for Ethernet and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines. When installing in racks or crowded conduits, use labeling and cable ties to reduce strain on the connectors and simplify future maintenance.
