Microconnect UTP508 Καλώδιο δικτύου γκρι 8 m Cat5e U/UTP (UTP)

The MicroConnect UTP508 is an 8 m Cat5e U/UTP networking cable in grey, designed to provide a reliable wired connection between network devices such as switches, modems, routers and the building infrastructure via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. It supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and meets Cat5e specifications tested to 100 MHz, while remaining backward compatible with Cat5 installations. The cable includes latch protection on the RJ45 connector to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable offers tested performance up to 100 MHz and compatibility with Cat5 equipment, a standard UTP construction for common office and home networking needs, and an 8 m length that balances reach and manageability. The integrated latch protection helps prevent connector breakage during routing or mounting in confined areas.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home and small office networks
• Linking network devices to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets
• Wired connections for streaming devices, gaming consoles and media players

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e (U/UTP)
• Frequency rating: tested up to 100 MHz
• Data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s
• Length: 8 m
• Colour: Grey
• Connector protection: latch-protected RJ45 connector
• Weight: 0.14 kg

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network device (switch, router or modem) and the other into the target device or wall outlet/patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and high-interference sources and secure it as needed to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs under typical structured cabling limits for Cat5e, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines, and use proper strain relief when installing in permanent or semi-permanent setups.
