Microconnect B-UTP515S networking cable Black 15 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP515S is a 15 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and U/UTP (B-UTP) construction, designed for reliable connections between switches, modems, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. It supports transmission frequencies up to 100 MHz (Cat5e standard) and is backward compatible with Cat5. The black jacket provides a discreet appearance while the cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s for typical Ethernet use.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable offers tested performance up to 100 MHz and backward compatibility with Cat5, latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces, and U/UTP construction for consistent signal transmission. The 15 m length provides flexibility for connections in small offices, homes or rack setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, modems and switches
• Patch panel to network device connections
• Home and small office Ethernet and entertainment networks
• Wiring through keystone jacks or wall outlets

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or infrastructure (router, switch, modem, patch panel or wall jack). Ensure connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and interference from power cables for stable performance. Verify link lights on devices to confirm a successful connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat5e cable for Gigabit Ethernet within its tested 100 MHz specification and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines. If you need higher shielding or performance over longer distances, consider Cat6 or shielded cable alternatives.
