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

The Microconnect UTP502B is a 2 m Cat5e UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends. Designed for wired connections between devices such as switches, modems and routers or to infrastructure elements like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets, the cable supports the Cat5e standard (tested up to 100 MHz) and is backwards compatible with Cat5. Its blue jacket provides an identifiable colour for home and small office networks.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides reliable data transmission with U/UTP construction to reduce interference. The 2 m length offers convenient reach for desktop and small office setups, while gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact. The cable is lightweight and easy to route, and its Cat5e rating guarantees compatibility with common Ethernet applications up to 100 MHz.
