Network Cable ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA PVC Black 7M RJ-45 Male/Male

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA PVC Black 7M RJ-45 Male/Male network cable uses copper-clad aluminum (CCA) conductors with an AWG of 26 and a U/UTP construction. The 7 m cable supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and features gold-plated RJ-45 male connectors with latch protection for secure connections. The outer PVC jacket is black and the cable includes strain relief to improve durability during installation and regular use.

Advantages

This ProXtend CAT5e cable provides an economical solution for Gigabit Ethernet-compatible networks while maintaining reliable connectivity. Copper-clad aluminum conductors reduce material cost and weight, while gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and latch protection help ensure stable signal transfer and secure connector seating. The integrated strain relief and PVC jacket increase mechanical durability for home or office installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers within a home or office local area network
• Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) cabling where CCA conductors are acceptable
• Patch panel to network device connections at desks or network racks

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 male connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices (for example, a PC and a router or a switch). Ensure the connector latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use the built-in strain relief when positioning the cable near connectors. For stable Gigabit speeds, connect to network interfaces and equipment that support 1000 Mbit/s.

Recommendations

Use this ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP CCA cable for typical home and office networking tasks where a cost-effective cable is required. Avoid using CCA cables for long-distance backbone runs or in installations where guaranteed full copper performance is required. Inspect connectors for damage before use and avoid excessive bending or crushing to maintain signal quality.
