Network Cable Extralink LAN Patchcord Kat.5e RJ-45 F/UTP 0.5m Black

Extralink LAN Patchcord Cat.5e is a shielded network cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections. This 0.5 m F/UTP (FTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends allows direct linking of active devices such as routers, switches, computers or VoIP phones and can be used to interconnect patch panels in IT cabinets. The cable uses four twisted pure-copper conductors and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Advantages

The screened Cat5e construction reduces electromagnetic interference and cross-talk, while gold-plated screened RJ45 plugs ensure stable contact and corrosion resistance. A flexible sheath improves ease of installation in tight spaces and offers comfortable handling during routing and maintenance. The 0.5 m length is convenient for short links between nearby devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting router to switch
• Linking computers or VoIP phones to structured cabling
• Patching between patch panels in server racks or IT cabinets
• Short-distance PoE device connections

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat5e (F/UTP / FTP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — screened, gold-plated
• Conductor: four twisted pairs, pure copper
• Color: Black

How to use

Plug RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports of the devices to be connected (for example, router and switch or computer and patch panel). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching; keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference where possible. For PoE applications, verify that both the power source and powered device support the intended PoE class.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Extralink Cat5e F/UTP patchcord for short interconnects and patching inside racks or between adjacent devices. Avoid excessive bending radii and tensile stress; replace the cable if connector damage or shielding degradation is visible.
