Microconnect B-UTP502B Network Cable Blue 2 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP502B RJ-45 Cat5e 2 m Blue is a 2 metre U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for wired connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers and patch panels. Compliant with the Cat5e standard and tested up to 100 MHz, the cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is backwards compatible with Cat5 installations. The blue jacket and 2 m length make it suitable for home, office and small entertainment network setups.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable Cat5e performance with U/UTP construction to reduce interference and support gigabit Ethernet speeds. RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure broad compatibility with network devices and wall outlets. The connectors include latch protection to prevent damage during installation in confined spaces. The 2 m length and lightweight design simplify cable routing and management.

Suitable for

• Connecting a router, modem or switch to a patch panel or wall jack
• Wiring desktop PCs and networked devices in home or small office setups
• Linking AV or entertainment equipment to a local network
• Replacing or extending existing Cat5/Cat5e patch connections

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or wall outlets until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are seated firmly and avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable to maintain signal integrity. For best results, route the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference and secure it with cable ties or clips as needed.

Recommendations

For reliable gigabit performance, use the cable within its 2 m length and avoid running it parallel to power lines. If you require longer runs or additional shielding in electrically noisy environments, consider higher-category or shielded alternatives (Cat6/Cat6a).
