How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding ports of your networking devices (switch, router, patch panel or workstation). Ensure connectors latch securely and that the cable is routed to avoid sharp bends or physical stress. Use the yellow colour to match your site’s cabling scheme or to highlight a particular network segment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain bend radius and avoid placing the cable near strong electromagnetic sources. Inspect the molded boots and latches periodically and replace the patch cord if any connector damage or performance degradation is observed.
