Ethernet LAN network cables provide wired connections between network devices. The range includes RJ45 connection cables, UTP patch cords and flat Ethernet cables, with CAT5e, CAT6, Cat6A and Cat 8 options represented. Brands include Orico, Ugreen, Maclean, Cabletime, Power Plant and Extra Digital. Different lengths support layouts ranging from devices placed together on a desk to connections across a room.

How to choose Ethernet LAN network cables

First, check that the devices being connected have RJ45 ports. Measure the intended cable route, allowing for furniture, corners and the position of each connection. Match the cable category to the requirements of the network and the specifications stated for the individual product. Identical connectors do not mean that every cable has identical performance specifications.

  • Cable category: Available designations include CAT5e, CAT6, Cat6A and Cat 8. Compare the stated specifications with the requirements of the equipment and planned connection.
  • Length: Measure the full routing distance rather than just the straight line between devices. A little spare length helps avoid a connection under tension.
  • RJ45 patch cords: These are connection cables with plugs fitted at the ends. Typical uses include connecting a computer, router or network switch.
  • Flat cables: Orico and Ugreen offer flat Ethernet cables. The cable profile is worth considering when planning a route alongside furniture or through a restricted space.
  • UTP designation: UTP appears in the names of several network cables. Consider this designation alongside the category and the other details in the product description.

For a desk setup, focus on the distance between devices and the position of the ports. For a connection across a room, plan the complete route before choosing a length. Compare Orico, Ugreen and other Ethernet LAN network cables using the same category, length and shape criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right Ethernet cable length?

Choose Ethernet cable length by measuring the full planned route, including corners and sections alongside furniture. Allow a little spare length so the connection is not under tension.

What should I compare when choosing CAT5e, CAT6, Cat6A or Cat 8?

Compare the stated specifications of each Ethernet cable with the requirements of your network equipment. Consider the cable category together with its length and connectors.

When should I consider a flat Ethernet cable?

A flat Ethernet cable is worth considering when cable shape matters along the planned route. Assess the space available beside furniture and around the connection points.

What is an RJ45 patch cord?

An RJ45 patch cord is a network connection cable with plugs fitted at both ends. It connects devices equipped with suitable Ethernet ports.
