Why choose it

The F/UTP shielding helps protect against interference, making this cable suitable for electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain reliable connections over time. The CCA conductor offers a cost-effective alternative to solid copper while still supporting Gigabit speeds for short runs.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting computers to wall outlets in offices
• Linking network devices in server racks
• Home networking for gaming consoles or smart TVs
• Patch panel connections in structured cabling

Good to know

The cable is stranded, which makes it flexible and resistant to bending fatigue. It is compatible with all Ethernet devices supporting 10/100/1000Base-T. The red colour aids in quick identification of network connections.
