Microconnect B-UTP50025B networking cable Blue 0.25 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP50025B RJ-45 Cat5e 0.25 m Blue is a short patch cable for connecting network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable conforms to the Cat5e standard and is tested up to 100 MHz; it supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is backwards compatible with Cat5. The U/UTP construction reduces interference and the cable is fitted with a latch protection to prevent connector damage during installation in confined spaces.

Advantages

This 0.25 m Microconnect Cat5e cable provides a compact and reliable connection for short-distance patching. Its U/UTP design helps minimise electromagnetic interference while maintaining Cat5e performance up to 100 MHz. The integrated latch protection reduces the risk of accidental connector breakage when routing the cable through tight openings. The blue colour makes cable identification easier in multi-cable setups.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network devices (switch to router, switch to modem)
• Connecting devices to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets
• Home and small office LAN and entertainment systems

For best performance, avoid excessive bending or stretching of the cable and keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use this Microconnect Cat5e patch cable for short interconnections within racks, on desktops or between nearby network devices. For longer runs or environments requiring higher bandwidth or additional shielding, consider Cat6/Cat6a cables or shielded variants.
