InLine Patch Cable F/UTP Cat.5e Black 0.5m

The InLine Patch Cable F/UTP Cat.5e black 0.5m is a short, shielded Ethernet cable designed for reliable LAN data connections. With F/UTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this 0.5 m cable reduces electromagnetic interference to maintain stable data transmission between network devices while keeping a compact footprint and black finish suitable for tidy installations.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding provides improved protection against external electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables, helping to preserve signal integrity in environments with potential noise sources. The Cat.5e specification supports Ethernet and Fast Ethernet links, and the 0.5 m length minimises cable clutter near switches, routers and other rack or desk equipment. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure broad compatibility with network ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches to nearby routers or hubs
• Linking network cards to patch panels or wall outlets
• Short Ethernet runs between printers, print servers and workstations
• Tidy connections in small racks, cabinets or desktop setups

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (switch, router, hub, network card or print server). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Use the 0.5 m length for short, direct links to reduce excess cabling and maintain tidy routing.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tightly coiling the cable or placing it parallel to power lines for extended runs. Use the F/UTP cable where additional shielding is beneficial, and replace the cable if connectors or the jacket show visible damage.
