Microconnect UTP510B networking cable Blue 10 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP510B is a 10 m Cat5e U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable data transmission in home and small office environments. Tested to the Cat5e standard up to 100 MHz, this blue patch cable connects devices such as switches, modems and routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets.

Advantages

The cable supports Cat5e performance up to 100 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5, offering a dependable solution for Ethernet and standard data applications. U/UTP construction reduces external interference and the pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors provide plug-and-play convenience. The 10 m length provides flexibility for typical room and office layouts, while the blue colour helps with visual identification of network runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Home and small office networks
• Wired entertainment systems and media devices

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of a device (for example a switch, router or modem) and the other connector into the corresponding port on another device, a patch panel or a wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sources of electrical interference. For structured installations, label both ends if required and secure the cable with appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep bend radius greater than the cable diameter. Use Cat5e cables for typical Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps where supported by the network equipment; for higher future-proofing consider Cat6 or higher.
