Cost-Effective Gigabit Networking: Round Cat5e Unshielded (UTP) Ethernet Cable
Build a dependable and budget-friendly network environment with the Category 5e (Cat5e) Round Unshielded Ethernet Patch Cable (UTP). Engineered for everyday networking needs, this classic high-speed patch cord supports data transfer rates up to 1Gbps (1000BASE-T) at a 100MHz bandwidth frequency. Whether you are equipping office workstations, deploying VoIP telephony, or setting up a basic home network, this UTP Cat5e round cable offers a proven, cost-effective solution for consistent connectivity.
Premium Pure Copper Core & Reliable Signal Integrity
To prevent unexpected packet loss and network slowdowns, material quality is key:
- 100% Pure Bare Copper Construction: Manufactured with solid/stranded bare copper conductors that comply strictly with TIA/EIA industry standards, ensuring lower DC resistance and better thermal dissipation for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications.
- Gold-Plated RJ45 Plugs: Features 50-micron gold-plated contacts that resist oxidation and corrosion, providing solid conductivity over thousands of insertion cycles.
- Snagless Strain-Relief Boots: Protective molded boots cover the connector locking tab, preventing accidental snaps or snags during cable pulls through tight spaces.
Heavy-Duty Round Profile for Daily Cable Management
Compared to lightweight flat cables, heavy-duty round Cat5e UTP cables provide reliable mechanical protection for standard cabling environments:
- Consistent Pair Geometry: The round outer sleeve maintains precise internal pair twisting, ensuring steady characteristic impedance along the entire cable link.
- Durable Outer Jacket: Encased in a flexible, flame-retardant PVC jacket designed to withstand daily bending, pulling, and ambient wear and tear.
Universal Hardware Compatibility
Plug-and-play operation ensures instant compatibility across all standard RJ45-equipped network devices:
- Office & Desktop Equipment: Workstation PCs, laptops, network switches, patch panels, cable modems, and network printers.
- VoIP & Security Systems: IP security cameras, VoIP desktop phones, and wireless routers.
- Home Entertainment: Smart TVs, gaming consoles (PS4, Xbox), and streaming media players.
