SPEEDCON: SPEEDCON is a technology installed on the M (circular connector) side of these ethernet cables. The SPEEDCON allows you to install your M12 connection in half a turn. Not only does the cable install rapidly, it provides an extra secure fitment to your mating connector for that ultimate ease of mind. SPEEDCON connections are effortless to install, simply push the M12 connector into its mating part, turn and you're set. Where to connect a network cable? Network cables are designed to allow you to have the most speed and efficiency on your network through a cable. The NBC-MSD cables come pre-wired and so all that you need to do is simply plug the cable in. Please bear in mind, these cables are not your conventional cables and include an M12 connector on one end. The M12 connector simply just needs to be pushed in and locked in. What is Cat 5? Cat 5 is a terminology that means 'category 5'. Category 5 cables are twisted pair cables that allow you to connect to network devices via cabling. Cat 5 cables are terminated by an RJ45 port on at least one of the ends and can transmit speeds of up to 100 Mbps.
