Networking Cable Lanberg PCU5-10CC-0300-B U/UTP Cat5e 3m Blue

The Lanberg PCU5-10CC-0300-B U/UTP Cat5e networking cable is a 3 m blue patch cable designed for standard Ethernet connections. It complies with the Cat5e specification for 100 Mbps and Gigabit-capable networks where Cat5e performance is sufficient. The cable uses unshielded twisted pairs with an overall U/UTP construction and features copper-plated connector contacts to provide consistent signal transfer and mechanical durability. Its 3-m length and flexible jacket make it convenient for connecting devices across short distances in home or office environments.

Advantages

The U/UTP Cat5e design offers balanced performance for typical LAN applications while keeping cable thickness and flexibility suitable for patching and installation in racks or workstations. Copper-plated contacts reduce contact resistance and improve long-term reliability. The blue jacket provides easy visual identification in multi-cable installations and helps maintain tidy cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers within small networks
• Patch panel and wall outlet connections in offices and home networks
• Short-range connections for VoIP phones, IP cameras and network printers
• Temporary or permanent workstation network cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (meets Cat5e performance requirements)
• Shielding: U/UTP (overall unshielded with twisted pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Connector contacts: copper-plated contacts for improved conductivity
• Color: blue
• Typical use: Ethernet patch cable for 10/100/1000 Mbps networks where Cat5e is appropriate

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of your device and the other connector into a switch, router or patch panel port. Check that connectors are fully seated and that cable runs are free from sharp bends or kinks to avoid degraded signal quality. For best results, keep the cable length within the specified 3 m and avoid routing it alongside high-voltage power cables which can introduce interference.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e U/UTP cable for standard local area network connections where Cat5e performance is sufficient. For environments with high electromagnetic interference or for future-proofing to higher speeds, consider shielded cables or higher category cabling as appropriate.
