Microconnect UTP515R networking cable Red 15 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The MicroConnect UTP515R is a 15 m Cat5e U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable wired connections between network devices such as switches, modems and routers, or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s, meets Cat5e testing up to 100 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5. The cable is supplied in red and includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This MicroConnect Cat5e cable provides tested performance to the Cat5e standard (up to 100 MHz) while enabling gigabit data rates. Its U/UTP construction and RJ-45 terminations make it compatible with a wide range of network devices and infrastructure. The integrated latch protection helps prevent connector breakage when routing the cable through confined installation paths. The 15 m length offers extended reach for many small office, home network and entertainment setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to each other
• Linking devices to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Wired connections for entertainment devices (TV, media players, game consoles)
