Networking Cable METZ CONNECT 13084F2000-E Black 2m

The METZ CONNECT 13084F2000-E Black 2m is a Cat5e networking cable with S/UTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Designed for reliable Ethernet connections in home and office environments, the 2-meter length offers flexibility for desktop setups and short patch runs. The cable supports high-speed data transfer and maintains signal integrity through its screened twisted pair construction, while the black jacket provides a neutral, professional appearance.

Advantages

S/UTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and improves transmission stability in electrically noisy environments. The Cat5e specification ensures compatibility with a broad range of network equipment and supports high data throughput. The molded RJ-45 connectors provide secure plug fit and strain relief to extend connector life. The 2 m length balances reach and cable management, making installation straightforward without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, laptops, or network printers to switches or routers
• Patching between wall outlets and network devices in offices or home networks
• Short runs in structured cabling for small server rooms or network cabinets
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e
• Shielding: S/UTP (screened outer shield with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 2 meters
• Color: Black
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (dependent on network equipment and installation)
• Typical application: Ethernet networking, patching, and short-distance data connections

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (router, switch, or wall port) and the other connector into the target device (computer, printer, or access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and areas with heavy mechanical stress; leave gentle curves with a radius larger than the cable diameter to maintain performance. For best results, keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and large electrical equipment that can introduce interference.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e S/UTP cable for typical home and office installations and short patch runs where shielding against EMI is beneficial. Verify your network devices support the intended speeds; performance depends on the full link (devices, switches, and overall cabling). Replace cables showing visible damage to the jacket or connectors to maintain reliable connections.
