At ShowMeCables we like to talk about our huge selection of Ethernet patch cables and bulk Ethernet cable. We’ve been developing and honing our inventory since 1995 so we have thousands of products to offer. But we realize that with such a wide selection, sometimes it might be confusing for you to determine exactly what you need. To help you narrow your search, below we explain our main “shopping options” you select when searching for Ethernet cables.
We also list a few reasons why you might benefit from buying bulk Ethernet cable.
We conclude with a table showing the main specifications and applications for Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7, and Cat8 Ethernet cables.
RJ45 Ethernet Cables
RJ45 connectors are modular, eight-pin plugs used for standard networking applications such as connecting your computer to a router or a switch. They terminate most Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7, and Cat8 twisted-pair cable. An RJ45 color code or “pinout” is a specific arrangement of wires that dictate how the connector is terminated. The color code specifies the order in which the individual wires within the cable should be connected to the pins on the connector.
M12 Ethernet Cables
The connectors on M12 Ethernet cables can have different configurations, including three, four, five, or eight pins. They have a circular, screw-locking design that provides a more robust, reliable connection for use in settings such as factories, in transportation systems where vibrations, movement, and temperature fluctuations are common, and in military applicati
