Black Box C5EPC70S-RD-02 CAT5E Locking Snagless Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box C5EPC70S-RD-02 is a 2-foot, CAT5E, 100 MHz locking patch cable in red. Its snagless design and locking RJ45 connector prevent accidental disconnections, making it ideal for environments where cable security is critical, such as in server racks, network closets, or mobile surveillance units. The locking mechanism ensures the cable remains firmly seated, preventing network interruptions common with standard patch cords in high-vibration or frequently accessed locations. This cable is designed to support 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet networks.
Compatibility
This CAT5E cable is compatible with any standard RJ45 Ethernet port found on network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and other network-attached devices. The locking feature is designed to engage with standard RJ45 jacks, providing a secure connection for devices that may experience movement or vibration. It is suitable for use with equipment from brands such as Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, Dahua, and any other manufacturer utilizing standard Ethernet connectivity.
Installation Notes
The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector clip from damage during installation and removal, preventing premature wear. The locking mechanism requires a simple push-button release for disconnection, ensuring a secure fit without requiring specialized tools. Ensure the locking tab on the connector is fully engaged when plugging into a port to confirm a secure connection. The 2-foot length is optimized for short-run connections within a rack or between adjacent equipment.
