Microconnect UTP5003W networking cable White 0.3 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP5003W is a 0.3 m Cat5e UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for short-distance connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers or wall outlets. The cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and meets Cat5e requirements with testing up to 100 MHz. Its white jacket and compact length make it suitable for tidy, close-proximity installations in homes and small offices.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides backwards compatibility with Cat5 standards and includes latch protection on the connectors to reduce the risk of damage during installation in tight spaces. U/UTP construction helps minimise interference for reliable signal transmission over short links. The 0.3 m length reduces cable clutter and is convenient for connecting devices placed near each other.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to router or modem at short distance
• Patch panel or keystone jack connections in small installations
• Home and small office network links between nearby devices
• Connecting networked entertainment equipment (TV, set-top box, media player)

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (for example, router to switch, or device to wall outlet). Ensure the connectors click into place via the latch protection to secure the connection. Route the 0.3 m cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. For best performance, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short, direct connections where a 0.3 m length is sufficient; for longer runs or where additional shielding is required, choose a cable with appropriate length or higher shielding class.
