Network Cable SBOX CABLE UTP CAT5e RJ-45 5 m Grey

The SBOX CABLE UTP CAT5e RJ-45 5 m Grey is a 5-metre network cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It complies with the Cat5e standard and features RJ-45 connectors on both ends, gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity, and an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction in a neutral grey colour.

Advantages

This UTP CAT5e cable delivers reliable data transmission for home and office networks, supports common Ethernet speeds up to Cat5e performance levels, and benefits from gold-plated RJ-45 contacts that reduce corrosion and improve signal integrity. Its 5 m length provides flexibility for device placement while maintaining tidy cable runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and network printers to routers or switches
• Wired connections for gaming consoles and smart TVs
• Setting up small office or home network segments
• Temporary or permanent point-to-point Ethernet links within a room

Key specifications

• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair), Cat5e
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet ports of your devices or network equipment until the connector clicks into place. Ensure both ends are firmly seated on the router, switch or device. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and protect it from sharp edges or heavy objects that could damage the jacket or conductors.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the UTP cable alongside high-voltage power lines and keep overall cable length within recommended limits for Cat5e networks. If you require higher bandwidth or longer runs, consider Cat6 or fibre solutions.
