Network Cable ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP RJ-45 Male/Male 5M Blue

The ProXtend CAT5e U/UTP RJ-45 Male/Male 5M Blue is a 5-meter network cable designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) connections. Constructed with copper-clad aluminum (CCA) strands at AWG 26, the cable provides a cost-effective wired solution with U/UTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts to support reliable data transfer up to 1000 Mbit/s.

Advantages

The cable combines CCA conductors and AWG 26 sizing to lower manufacturing cost while maintaining acceptable electrical performance for typical Ethernet applications. U/UTP shielding reduces external interference, gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and contact reliability, and integrated strain relief and latch protection increase connector durability during installation and use.

Suitable for

• Wired home networks and office LANs
• Connecting PCs, routers, switches and NAS devices
• 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet links up to 5 m

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 male connector to the Ethernet port of your device (PC, switch, router or NAS) and the other connector to the corresponding Ethernet port on the network equipment. Ensure the connectors click into place and the latch protection is engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the integrated strain relief reduces stress at the connector ends.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this cable for short to medium runs up to 5 m in environments without heavy electromagnetic interference. Do not use where full copper conductors are required by installation rules or for PoE installations exceeding the cable's intended current ratings.
