Patch Cable helos 205242 RJ-45, 7.5 m, network cable, male-to-male

helos Patch Cable 205242 is a 7.5 m RJ-45 male-to-male network cable designed for establishing wired Ethernet connections between routers, switches, PCs and other network devices. The ready-made patch cable offers a straightforward solution for linking equipment in home and office LANs, providing a fixed-length, flexible connection that avoids dependence on wireless links.

Advantages

The cable uses standard RJ-45 connectors on both ends to ensure compatibility with common Ethernet ports. Its 7.5 metre length provides sufficient reach for typical room and office layouts without excess slack, while the pre-terminated design eliminates the need for on-site crimping or assembly. The cable is suitable for structured cabling runs and quick device-to-device connections, delivering consistent physical performance for everyday network use.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or workstation to a router or switch
• Linking network devices such as switches, access points and NAS units
• Temporary or permanent cabling in home and small office networks
• Desk setups where a fixed-length Ethernet cable is required

Key specifications

• Cable type: RJ-45 patch cable (male-to-male)
• Length: 7.5 metres
• Intended use: Wired Ethernet connections (LAN)
• Connector type: 8P8C modular RJ-45 plugs
• Typical environment: Home, office, small business network installations

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of the source device (for example a router or switch) and the other connector into the target device (for example a PC or network printer). Ensure the connectors click into place and verify link/activity LEDs on network devices to confirm a successful physical connection. For best results, avoid sharp bends in the cable near the connector and route the cable to prevent mechanical strain or interference from power lines.

Recommendations

Place the cable away from sources of EMI such as heavy electrical equipment and fluorescent lighting. If longer runs or higher shielding are required, consider a cable with appropriate category rating or shielded construction to match network speed and environment.
