This Microconnect CAT5e UTP network cable is designed for reliable network connections in home, small office, and entertainment environments. It offers a dependable link between network devices and infrastructure, supporting speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s. A key benefit is its latch protection, preventing connector damage during installation in tight spaces, though its Copper-Clad Aluminium (CCA) conductors may offer less performance consistency than pure copper in high-demand scenarios.

This Cat5e cable supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet).
No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable, meaning it does not have an overall shield.
Yes, Cat5e cables are backward compatible with Cat5 standards.
CCA stands for Copper-Clad Aluminium. This means the conductor is an aluminium core covered with a thin layer of copper. While functional, it may not offer the same conductivity or durability as pure copper conductors in high-performance scenarios.
Latch protection is a feature on the RJ-45 connector that prevents the clip from breaking off when the cable is installed or removed, especially in tight spaces.
You can wipe the cable with a slightly damp cloth. For connectors, use a dry, lint-free cloth if they appear dusty. Do not use liquids directly on the connectors.
This cable is designed for indoor use in home and office environments. It is not rated for outdoor exposure.
Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the correct ports. Try a different Ethernet port on your router or device. Test with another known working cable to rule out cable failure. Verify network device settings.
The latch protection is designed to prevent this. If damage has occurred, the cable may need replacement. Inspect the port on the device for damage as well.
Check for potential sources of electromagnetic interference near the cable. Ensure the cable is not kinked or severely bent. Replace the cable if suspected damage or wear is present.
Setup: Simply plug the RJ-45 male connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your network devices, such as a router, switch, computer, or smart TV. Ensure a secure click as the connectors engage.
Compatibility: This Cat5e cable is compatible with any device featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port. It adheres to the 10/100/1000Base-T(X) standard and is backward compatible with older Cat5 equipment.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity:
