FAQs

Is this cable compatible with my PS5 or Xbox?

Yes, it is fully compatible with any device featuring a standard RJ45 Ethernet port.

Can I use this for my Gigabit internet plan?

Yes, while the cable is rated for 40Gbps, it will work perfectly fine with 1Gbps or lower internet plans.

Is the cable shielded?

Yes, it uses an SSTP shielded design to protect against interference.

Can I use this cable outdoors?

No, this cable is designed for indoor use and does not feature UV or water-resistant shielding.

What happens if I bend the cable too tightly?

Bending the cable beyond its natural radius can damage the internal shielding, which may lead to reduced performance or intermittent connectivity.

Troubleshooting

No network connection detected

Ensure both ends are fully inserted into the ports until they click. Check that your router or switch port is active.

Intermittent data drops

Verify that the cable is not pinched or bent at a sharp angle. Ensure there is no heavy electromagnetic interference near the cable path.

Cable does not fit the port

The ATEK cable uses standard RJ45 connectors. Verify that your device port is intended for Ethernet and not a proprietary telephone or serial port.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports high-speed 40Gbps data transmission
  • Shielded design reduces external signal interference
  • Durable construction suitable for frequent use
  • Includes identification strap for better cable management
  • Clean white aesthetic fits most decor

Cons

  • Fixed 3-metre length limits reach for long-distance runs
  • Rigidity from shielding may make sharp bends more difficult
  • Not intended for outdoor or in-wall installation without conduit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply plug the RJ45 connectors into your device's Ethernet port until you hear a clear click, indicating the tab has locked into place. This cable is backward compatible with all devices requiring RJ45 connections, including those using CAT6 or CAT7 standards. To maintain the life of the cable, avoid bending the cord at sharp 90-degree angles, which can damage the internal shielding. When moving equipment, ensure the cable is unplugged first to prevent undue stress on the connector housing. Store the cable in a cool, dry place if not in use, and keep it away from direct heat sources to preserve the outer jacket material.
