Networking Cable Gembird PP22-3M 3m Cat5e Beige RJ-45

The Gembird PP22-3M is a 3-meter FTP (foil shielded twisted pair) patch cable that meets Cat5e standards and is fitted with gold-plated 8P8C (RJ-45) male connectors. Designed for reliable data transmission, the beige cable includes moulded strain relief on the plugs to reduce connector stress and maintain connection quality in home and office networks.

Advantages

The foil shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for more stable signal integrity. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide corrosion resistance and improved conductivity. The moulded strain relief increases connector durability and helps prevent cable damage at termination points. The 3 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop and small-office layouts.

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 plug into the network port of your computer, switch or router and the other plug into the corresponding port on the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching; allow some slack near connection points to prevent strain. For shielded installations, verify that connected equipment or patch panels support FTP grounding if required.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e FTP cable for standard 100BASE-TX and gigabit network segments where shielded cabling is preferred to reduce interference. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines for long distances and replace the cable if any visible damage to the plug or jacket appears.
