Microconnect UTP501G networking cable Green 1 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP501G is a 1 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and U/UTP construction. Tested to the Cat5e frequency of 100 MHz and backwards compatible with Cat5, this green patch cable is suitable for connecting switches, routers, modems or patch panels in home and small office networks. The cable includes latch protection to help prevent connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides reliable data transmission up to 100 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5 equipment. U/UTP shielding reduces interference in typical home and office environments. The 1 m length and standard RJ-45 connectors make it convenient for short patching and device-to-device connections, while the latch protection preserves connector integrity during installation. The green colour helps identify or organise network runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switch to patch panel or wall outlet
• Linking router, modem or networked devices within a rack or desk area
• Home and small office Ethernet links
• Short patching runs and cable identification

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the network ports of the devices you wish to connect (for example, switch to router or patch panel to wall outlet). Ensure connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and tension; leave some slack to prevent strain on the connectors. For installations in confined spaces, handle the latch carefully to avoid accidental damage while pushing the connector into the port.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m Microconnect Cat5e cable for short Ethernet connections inside racks, between devices on a desk, or for colour-coded cable management. For longer runs or higher performance requirements, consider Cat6 or fibre options.
