How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network device (for example a router, switch or modem) and the other into the target outlet, patch panel or keystone jack. Ensure connectors click into place via the latch protection and avoid sharp bends or heavy pulls on the cable to maintain signal quality. For optimal performance, route the cable away from strong electrical noise sources and avoid running it in parallel with mains power cables for long distances.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e cable for links up to 5 meters where Gigabit speeds are required within the limitations of Cat5e specification; for longer runs or higher shielding needs consider Cat6 or shielded variants.
