Microconnect V-UTP502WVP networking cable White 2 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect V-UTP502WVP RJ-45 Cat5e 2m White is a 2-meter Cat5e U/UTP network patch cable designed for reliable data transfer up to Cat5e standard frequencies (tested to 100 MHz). It provides a straightforward connection between network devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is backward compatible with Cat5 installations. The white outer jacket and compact design make it suitable for home and small office networking and entertainment setups.

Advantages

The cable features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and U/UTP (unshielded/overall) construction, offering dependable signal transmission for standard Ethernet applications. It includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during tight installations and is manufactured to Cat5e specifications, ensuring compatibility with existing Cat5 networks while supporting Gigabit-capable links where wiring and equipment permit.

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or modem) and the other plug to the target device or infrastructure point (patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet). Ensure each connector is fully seated until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strain; for wall installations, use appropriate cable management and avoid pinching the cable in mounting brackets or furniture.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended Ethernet distances and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference. Verify network equipment supports the desired speed (Gigabit) and replace cable if the latch or connector shows physical damage.
