When do you need a Cat 5e network cable?
A Cat 5e network cable is used to connect devices to each other via a wired network. This is ideal when you need a stable internet connection for your computer, printer, switch or router. Unlike Wi-Fi, a wired connection offers no signal loss and no interference.

Why choose a 0.5 metre length?
This short cable length of 0.5 metres is perfect for connections over a short distance. For example, you can use it to connect your computer directly to a nearby switch, or to link network equipment together in a server rack. The short length keeps your workspace neat without any unnecessary cable.

What does Cat 5e U/UTP mean for your use?
Cat 5e stands for Category 5 enhanced and supports network speeds of up to 1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit). The U/UTP type means the cable is unshielded, which is sufficient for most office environments. The 1:1 wiring ensures both ends are identically connected, which is standard for direct device connections.

Practical features that make the difference
The gold-plated contacts of the RJ45 connectors ensure a reliable connection that does not corrode. The red colour makes the cable easy to identify in your network installation. The cable has a PVC jacket, and the connectors feature a moulded housing with red strain relief, providing extra durability when plugging and unplugging regularly.
