DIGITUS patch-kaapeli - Cat 5e - U/UTP - Snagless - Cu - 5m - sininen

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 5e U/UTP RJ-45 5m in blue is a Category 5e patch cord designed for reliable data transmission up to 100 MHz. It features RJ-45 connectors with copper conductors and an unshielded (U/UTP) construction suitable for typical 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet applications. The transparent blue connector enables quick visual identification of Category 5e cabling in structured networks.

Advantages

The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 5e standards, ensuring compliance with channel specification requirements and stable performance characteristics such as near-end crosstalk (NEXT) up to 100 MHz. Molded boots with kink protection and strain relief reduce connector stress, while an integrated latch protector prevents damage to the latching lever. PoE compatibility is supported and the copper conductor provides good conductivity for network signals.

Suitable for

• Desktop PCs, workstations and laptops
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-router connections
• Office and home network installations
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as IP phones and access points

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (PC, switch, router or PoE device) and the other end to the corresponding port on the network infrastructure. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid tight bending near the connector by using the molded boot to reduce stress. Route the cable to prevent sharp bends and avoid proximity to strong electromagnetic sources where possible to maintain optimal signal quality.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat 5e patch cord for short- to medium-length horizontal connections within racks, between wall outlets and network equipment, and in typical office/home environments. If you require higher bandwidth or longer runs beyond 100 MHz performance needs, consider Cat 6 or higher-rated cables.
