Microconnect B-UTP502S Network Cable Black 2 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

MicroConnect B-UTP502S is a 2 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors, intended for connecting network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports Cat5e testing up to 100 MHz, is backwards compatible with Cat5, and uses U/UTP construction to reduce interference. It is finished in black and includes latch protection to reduce risk of connector damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable, tested Cat5e performance up to 100 MHz and supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) applications for data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. Its U/UTP design minimizes electromagnetic interference, the RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure broad compatibility, and the integrated latch protection helps prevent connector breakage when routing through confined spaces. The 2 m length offers flexibility for small office and home network layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Connecting computers, IP phones and networked entertainment devices

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router, modem or NIC) and the other into the destination point (patch panel, keystone jack, wall outlet or another device). Ensure connectors click into place and that the latch protection is not obstructed. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power cables to minimise interference.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for Ethernet links, avoid tight bends and kinks, and use the cable in environments that do not expose it to excessive moisture or mechanical strain.
