The connektgear 1m CAT5e network cable is designed for home and office users who need a reliable, short-reach connection for computers, printers, and smart TVs. It delivers dependable data transfer speeds up to 100Mbps and features a durable, snagless design that fits perfectly in confined spaces, though its 1-meter length limits it primarily to local device-to-router or patch panel connections.

Yes, CAT5e is capable of supporting Gigabit (1000Base-T) networking over short distances like this 1-meter cable.
No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable, which is the standard for most home and office network installations.
Snagless refers to the moulded hood over the connector clip, which prevents the clip from getting caught or snapping off when pulling the cable through a bundle.
No, this cable is designed for indoor use. It lacks the UV-resistant jacket required for prolonged exposure to outdoor elements.
This cable uses 24AWG wire, which provides a good balance between flexibility and durability.
The red color is often used in networking to color-code specific types of connections, such as distinguishing between data and voice, or primary vs. secondary networks.
Ensure both RJ-45 ends are fully seated in their ports until they click. Inspect the cable for sharp bends or physical damage to the jacket.
Verify that the link lights on both the device and the switch/router are active. Try swapping ports on the hardware to rule out a faulty switch port.
Ensure that the network hardware at both ends supports Gigabit speeds. While this cable supports higher standards, check for interference from nearby power cables.
This cable features standard RJ-45 male connectors at both ends, making it a true 'plug-and-play' solution. To install, simply align the connector with the port and push until you hear a clear 'click' from the snagless clip.
Compatibility: The cable follows the CAT5e standard, supporting speeds up to 1000Base-T, making it compatible with virtually all standard Ethernet ports found on modern PCs, printers, and networking gear.
Care: While the cable is durable, avoid sharp kinks or heavy pressure on the cable jacket. When removing the cable, always depress the snagless tab fully before pulling. Keep the gold-plated contacts clean and dry to ensure peak performance.
