This Microconnect CAT5e U/UTP network cable is designed for reliable connectivity in home, small office, and entertainment setups. It offers a dependable link between network devices and infrastructure, supporting speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s. A key benefit is its latch protection, which safeguards the connector during installation in tight spaces. However, it is important to note that this cable is shielded as U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) and may not be suitable for environments with high electromagnetic interference.

Yes, CAT5e cables are backwards compatible and can be used in networks that also utilize CAT6 or higher standards, but they will operate at CAT5e speeds.
Latch protection refers to a feature on the connector that helps prevent the locking tab from breaking off when the cable is plugged or unplugged, especially in tight spaces.
The conductor material is Copper-Clad Aluminium (CCA).
The cable length is 3 meters.
The cable is yellow.
Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the devices and network ports. Try a different cable or port to isolate the issue. Verify network device settings.
Check for physical damage to the cable, such as kinks or frayed wires. Ensure the cable is not too long for the required speed or in an area with significant electrical interference. Restart your modem and router.
While the cable is designed with latch protection, if damage occurs, the connector may not stay securely in the port. Replace the cable if the latch is broken, as it may lead to intermittent connectivity.
Setup: Simply plug one RJ-45 connector into your network device (e.g., router, computer) and the other into your network port (e.g., wall jack, switch). Ensure a firm click to confirm the connection.
Compatibility: This cable is compatible with any device featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port and supports networking standards up to 1000Base-T. It is backwards compatible with CAT5 cables.
Care: Keep the cable away from extreme heat, moisture, and sharp bends. Clean the connectors gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if necessary. Avoid pulling the cable by its cord; always grasp the connector when disconnecting.
