Network crossover cable InLine Cat5e S-FTP 0.5 m RJ-45 to RJ-45 Grey

Network crossover cable InLine Cat5e S-FTP, 0.5 m with RJ-45 connectors on both ends in grey. This shielded Cat5e crossover patch cable is designed for direct device-to-device connections and short networking links where a brief, interference-reduced cable is required.

Advantages

The S-FTP construction (foil around each pair plus overall braid) reduces electromagnetic interference and improves signal stability compared with unshielded cables. Its Cat5e specification and 8P8C (RJ-45) moulded plugs support gigabit-compatible connections over short distances. The 0.5 m length keeps cable clutter minimal for temporary setups or tight workspaces.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

Due to its 0.5 m length this crossover cable is not suitable for longer runs or permanent installations that require routing through ceilings or walls. If you need an unshielded cable or a different length, choose a cable with the appropriate screening and length for your installation.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of the first device and the other connector into the second device’s Ethernet port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. For optimal shielding performance, avoid tight bends near the connectors and keep the cable clear of high-power electrical cables where possible.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

If connecting devices in a confined workspace or performing temporary network tests, use this 0.5 m InLine Cat5e S-FTP crossover cable to minimise clutter and reduce interference. For permanent or longer installations choose an appropriate length and screening type.
