Networking Cable Draka Comteq 21.05.2015 Orange 1 m

The Draka Comteq 21.05.2015 Orange 1 m networking cable is a 1-metre Ethernet patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a brightly colored orange jacket for easy identification in crowded cable runs. Designed for straightforward device-to-device connections, it supports standard twisted-pair Ethernet signaling and is suitable for short links between routers, switches, computers and other network equipment in home and small-office environments.

Advantages

This 1 m Draka Comteq cable offers a compact length that reduces excess cable clutter and signal interference in close-proximity connections. The molded RJ-45 connectors provide secure mating and consistent contact, while the orange outer jacket improves visual management and rapid troubleshooting. The cable is manufactured to meet common electrical and mechanical expectations for patch cords, providing stable data transmission for typical Ethernet applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or laptop to a wall outlet, switch or router in a home or office
• Short patch runs in rack or workstation setups where space is limited
• Temporary network testing and diagnostics where quick identification of the cable is useful
• Linking networked devices in multimedia setups and small server closets

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 metre
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Outer jacket color: orange
• Cable category: twisted-pair Ethernet patch cable (suitable for standard Ethernet use)
• Typical use: short-distance patching between network devices

How to use

Uncoil the cable and plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on a switch, router or wall socket. Ensure connectors click securely into place to establish a stable link. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends or kinks near the connectors and keep the cable clear of sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use appropriate cable management to prevent strain on the connectors during deployment.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m cable for short, visible patching runs where color coding helps identify connections quickly. Replace the cable if the RJ-45 connector housing is cracked, if contacts appear corroded, or if data errors occur under normal conditions. For longer distances or specialized requirements (outdoor use, PoE at high power, or shielded installations), choose a cable specified for those conditions.
