Câble patch InLine U/UTP Cat.5e noir 0,5 m

The InLine Patch Cable U/UTP Cat.5e black 0.5m is a short, flexible Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in small-scale networking setups. Rated to Cat5e standards with U/UTP construction, this 0.5 m cable supports common Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet links within its specified use cases. The black outer jacket provides a discreet appearance for office racks, patch panels, and desktop connections where a compact cable is required.

Advantages

This U/UTP Cat5e patch cable reduces near-end crosstalk and external interference through its unshielded twisted pair design and consistent pair geometry, delivering stable connection quality for short runs. Its half-meter length minimizes excess cable clutter and improves cable management in dense installations. The durable jacket and factory-terminated RJ45 connectors ensure consistent electrical performance and easy plug-and-play installation without the need for additional tooling.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting switches to patch panels in server rooms and network racks
• Linking desktop PCs, laptops or VoIP phones to wall sockets or network outlets
• Short cable runs behind furniture, in media cabinets, or between nearby networking devices
• Temporary test setups and lab environments where compact cables reduce clutter

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e (U/UTP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Conductor arrangement: twisted pairs
• Connector type: RJ45 (8P8C) factory-terminated
• Outer colour: black
• Typical supported speeds: 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps for short runs consistent with Cat5e performance

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network device’s Ethernet port and the other end into the corresponding patch panel, switch, wall jack or endpoint. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure physical connection. For optimal signal integrity, avoid sharp bends and keep the cable length appropriate for the distance between devices. When routing through racks or conduits, secure the cable with ties or channels to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m InLine Cat5e patch cable for short, high-density cabling scenarios where minimal slack and good signal quality are required. Avoid running the cable parallel and in close proximity to high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference. For longer distances or higher shielding needs, consider higher-category or shielded alternatives.
