The Microconnect V-UTP5005WVP RJ-45 Cat5e 0.5m White is a flat U/UTP networking cable designed for compact installations and reliable data transfer. Compliant with the Cat5e standard, this 0.5 m cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and has RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Its slim, white design makes it suitable for routing behind baseboards, under carpets or in narrow spaces within IT racks and cabinets.

Advantages

The flat construction reduces required space and simplifies routing in tight or concealed paths. Tested to the Cat5e specification (up to 100 MHz), the cable provides backward compatibility with Cat5 equipment and stable connectivity through RJ-45 terminations. The white colour offers a discreet appearance in residential and office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home or small office networks

How to use

Route the cable through the desired path — behind skirting boards, under carpets or inside racks — ensuring connectors remain accessible. Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on devices such as switches, routers or PCs until the clip clicks. Verify link lights on network equipment to confirm connectivity and proper speed negotiation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pressure on the flat cable, maintain proper bend radius, and keep the cable away from strong electrical interference. Use this Cat5e cable for short runs up to 0.5 m where a low-profile cable is required.
