Network Cable ProXtend CAT5e RJ-45 Male 1.5M Grey

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA ethernet cable (1.5 m) is constructed with copper-clad aluminum (CCA) strands and a 26 AWG conductor to provide an economical solution for wired network connections. The grey PVC jacket houses RJ-45 connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts and a reinforced connector area for improved durability and secure latching during installation.

Advantages

This network cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) standards and data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s, offering compatibility with common gigabit Ethernet equipment. The use of CCA conductors and 26 AWG reduces cost and weight while the strain relief and latch protection increase connector longevity and reduce the risk of accidental disconnection.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, routers and switches within home or small office networks
• Wiring network devices requiring RJ-45 connectors and up to 1 Gbit/s throughput
• Temporary or cost-sensitive installations where lower material cost is desired

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the latch clicks into place. Ensure cables are not excessively bent or pinched and route them away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For best performance, use the cable within its intended length and avoid joining multiple cables with adapters or poor-quality couplers.

Recommendations

Use this ProXtend CAT5e cable for standard gigabit Ethernet connections in home and small office environments. For runs requiring higher shielding or longer distances, consider shielded cables or higher-category cabling (e.g., CAT6) to meet stricter performance or interference requirements.
