Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 U/UTP Cat.5e 5m Orange

The EFB Elektronik RJ45 U/UTP Cat.5e 5m orange networking cable provides reliable wired connectivity for Ethernet networks. With a five-metre length and Cat.5e specification, the cable supports high-speed data transmission for typical office and home network applications. The orange PVC jacket makes the cable easy to identify in patch panels and cable runs.

Advantages

This Cat.5e cable uses U/UTP construction to reduce external interference and is fitted with gold-plated RJ45 plugs for improved contact and corrosion resistance. The PVC jacket offers flexibility and basic mechanical protection. The cable conforms to standard TIA/EIA 568B pinout and is manufactured with low lead and cadmium content.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections (100BASE-TX, 10/100 Mbps networks)
• Connecting routers, switches and patch panels
• Home and small office network installations
• Temporary and permanent cable runs where colour coding is beneficial

Key specifications

• Length: 5 m
• Category: Cat.5e (U/UTP)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: PVC
• Wiring standard: TIA/EIA 568B
• Material limits: Lead < 90 ppm, Cadmium < 5 ppm
• Colour: Orange

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to your network device (router, switch or computer) and the other to the corresponding port on the remote device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a reliable connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference for stable performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat.5e cable for 10/100 Mbps Ethernet links or in environments where Cat.5e performance is sufficient. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radius recommendations to preserve signal integrity.
