Microconnect B-UTP515Y networking cable Yellow 15 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP515Y is a 15 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and U/UTP (B-UTP) construction. It supports Cat5e testing up to 100 MHz and a data transfer rate up to 1000 Mbit/s, providing a reliable wired connection between switches, modems, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets for home or small office networks. The cable is yellow and weighs approximately 0.152 kg.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable offers backwards compatibility with Cat5 systems and is tested to the Cat5e standard (100 MHz). The U/UTP shielding helps reduce electromagnetic interference, improving signal stability in typical home and office environments. The RJ-45 connectors include latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel and keystone jack terminations
• Home and small office network cabling
• Wired connections for entertainment devices (smart TVs, game consoles)

How to use

Route the cable between network devices or from devices to wall outlets or patch panels and insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports until the latch clicks. Ensure the cable is not sharply bent and avoid placing it near strong electromagnetic sources to maintain signal quality. For installations through tight spaces, use the latch protection to avoid damaging the connector during routing.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the Microconnect B-UTP515Y for runs within the specified length, avoid excessive bending or kinking, and keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and large electrical appliances that may cause interference.
