The Microconnect B-UTP520R RJ-45 Cat5e 20m Red is a 20-metre networking cable designed for reliable wired connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers and network outlets. Meeting the Cat5e standard and tested to 100 MHz, this U/UTP cable supports common Ethernet applications and is backward compatible with Cat5 installations. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the cable includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation.

Advantages

The cable provides tested Cat5e performance up to 100 MHz and backward compatibility with Cat5 equipment. With RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a 20 m length it enables flexible placement of network devices. Latch protection on the connectors reduces the chance of damage when routing the cable through tight spaces. The red jacket improves cable identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

  • Wired connections between switches, routers and modems
  • Patch panel or keystone jack to device connections
  • Small office and home network setups
  • Home entertainment systems and wired Ethernet devices

Key specifications

  • Length: 20 m
  • Standard: Cat5e (tested to 100 MHz)
  • Shielding: U/UTP
  • Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
  • Data rate: supports typical Ethernet speeds (backward compatible with Cat5)
  • Colour: Red
  • Weight: 0.344 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the target device, patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors fully click into place; the latch protection helps prevent damage during insertion. Route the cable without excessive bending or tension and avoid sharp kinks. For best signal performance, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources such as large motors or fluorescent ballast equipment.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e cable for typical Ethernet installations in homes and small offices. For environments requiring higher bandwidth or future-proofing (e.g., 10 Gbps over longer distances), consider using Cat6 or higher-rated cables instead.
