Product Information

Full details

This Kenable Cat 5E UTP Patch Cable is ideal for users needing a reliable, wired internet connection for devices like PCs, TVs, and gaming consoles, offering better transfer speeds than wireless. Its full copper core makes it suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as CCTV cameras and wireless range extenders. A potential caveat is that it's an unshielded cable, which might be less robust in highly interference-prone environments. Key features include 1000Mbps speed capability, UL certification for safety and quality, and moulded RJ45 ends.
