Cavo patch LAN Extralink Cat5e UTP 1 m, RJ-45 a RJ-45, grigio

Extralink LAN patchcord Cat5e UTP, 1 m, with RJ-45 connectors at both ends is a compact unshielded twisted-pair cable designed for standard Ethernet connections. The grey 1 m cable provides a direct, flexible link between network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels, computers and VoIP phones. Constructed from four pure copper conductors in twisted-pair configuration and terminated with gold-plated RJ-45 plugs, the patchcord supports Cat5e performance and PoE-capable connections in short-distance installations.

Advantages

The Extralink Cat5e UTP patchcord offers a balance of flexibility and reliable signal transmission for short links in home and office networks. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts reduce corrosion and help maintain low contact resistance while pure copper conductors ensure consistent data transfer. Its 1 m length and pliable outer sheath make routing and patching in racks or workstations straightforward, and the unshielded design simplifies installation where shielded cabling is not required.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers within racks or small wiring closets
• Patching between patch panels and network devices in IT cabinets
• Direct links to desktop computers, VoIP phones and access points
• Short-range Ethernet links where Cat5e performance is sufficient

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 1 m
• Conductors: 4 twisted pairs, pure copper
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Grey
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) where applicable

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the network ports of the devices you want to link, ensuring the clip clicks into place. Use the 1 m Extralink Cat5e patchcord to create short links between patch panels, switches, routers, computers or VoIP phones. Avoid tight bends or kinks in the cable and do not stretch the cable beyond its length. For rack installations, route the cable alongside other patchcords without compressing connectors or strain relief boots.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable for short-distance Ethernet connections within the same rack or between nearby devices. Avoid running the unshielded patchcord parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimise potential interference. Replace the cable if the outer sheath or connectors become damaged to maintain reliable network performance.
