This Kenable Cat5E-CCA network cable is designed for reliable data transfer between your router/modem and RJ45-enabled devices like PCs, laptops, TVs, and gaming consoles. Its key benefit is reduced interference thanks to Foil Twisted Pairs (FTP) shielding, leading to improved network performance. A key caveat is that this cable is for data transfer only and cannot be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It utilizes Copper-Clad Aluminium (CCA) for a lighter, more cost-effective, and easier-to-route solution compared to traditional copper cables.

'Cat5E' refers to Category 5e, a standard for Ethernet cables that supports data speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second. 'CCA' stands for Copper-Clad Aluminium, indicating the cable's core material is aluminium coated with copper, making it lighter and less expensive than pure copper.
No, this cable is specifically stated as NOT suitable for PoE devices. The CCA construction and design do not support power transmission, and attempting to use it with PoE devices could cause damage.
This cable is designed to maintain reliable data transfer and reduce interference. While it won't magically increase your internet plan's speed, it can help ensure you achieve the speeds your plan and equipment support by providing a stable connection, especially in noisy environments.
Please refer to the specific retailer or manufacturer's documentation for warranty details, as this information is not provided in the product description.
Yes, this cable features Foil Twisted Pairs (FTP) shielding, meaning each pair of wires is individually shielded to help reduce electromagnetic interference.
Plug one end into your router/modem/switch and the other end into your device (PC, TV, console). The RJ45 connectors should click securely into place.
Cat5E cables are typically rated for runs up to 100 meters (328 feet). While CCA may have slightly different electrical properties than pure copper, for standard home and office runs within this limit, performance should be adequate for data transfer.
Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the correct ports. Try a different Ethernet port on your router/switch and device. Test the cable with another known working device if possible.
Check for physical damage to the cable, such as cuts or sharp bends. Ensure the cable is not too close to sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Verify that your router and device support the speeds you expect.
Confirm the device's network adapter is enabled. Restart both the connected device and your router/modem. Ensure the cable's connectors are clean.
Setup:
Simply plug one RJ45 connector into an available Ethernet port on your router, modem, switch, or network device, and the other connector into the corresponding port on your computer, TV, or gaming console. Ensure the connectors click firmly into place.
Compatibility:
This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard RJ45 Ethernet port, including:
Important Compatibility Note: This cable is NOT suitable for devices that require Power over Ethernet (PoE), such as IP security cameras or wireless access points that draw power through the Ethernet cable. Using this cable with PoE devices can lead to equipment malfunction.
