Find Your Perfect Match: The Ultimate Guide to Networking Cables in Australia

In the fast-paced world of Australian IT infrastructure, a $20 cable shouldn't be the reason your $20,000 rack deployment is delayed. Yet, finding the exact connector combination, like a specific C19 - to - C20 power lead or an LC - to - LC OM4 fibre patch cord, often feels like hunting for a needle in a haystack.

At XS Network Tech, we’ve eliminated the "cable hunt" frustration. As the premier Australian distributor for Blue Cable Co, we’ve launched the Cable Selector Tool, a logic-based finder designed to get you the right part, right now.

Why Procurement Teams are Switching to the Blue Cable Co Finder

Traditional product lists are exhausting. You scroll through endless SKUs, only to find the item you need is out of stock or has a 12-week lead time. Our tool is built differently.

1. Zero Dead-Ends

The selector only displays combinations that actually exist in our Matraville (Sydney) warehouse. If you see it on the screen, it’s ready for dispatch same business day

2. Logic-First Selection

Instead of guessing part numbers, you simply select:

  • Cable Type: Ethernet, Fibre, Power, or Console.
  • Connector A: The source end.
  • Connector B: The destination end.

3. Built for Professional Racks

Whether you are patching a high-density Cisco Meraki WiFi 6E deployment, setting up a new server room or fitting out your data centre , our range covers the essentials:

  • Ethernet: High-grade copper for reliable data transfer.
  • Fibre: Single-mode and multi-mode options with various termination types.
  • Power: AU-plug, C13, C14, C19, and C20 leads for data center environments.
  • Console: The vital links for your Cisco, Arista, and Juniper management ports.

The Blue Cable Co Difference: Sustainable, Bulk-Ready Packaging

In a high-density data center rollout, unpacking hundreds of individually bagged cables isn't just a waste of time, it’s an environmental burden. At XS Network Tech, we’ve optimized our Blue Cable Co range to be "installation-ready" from the moment they arrive at your site:

  • Zero Single-Use Plastics: Our Fibre patch leads are packed in recycled paper, and our Ethernet cables are shipped in bulk packs without individual plastic bagging.
  • Reduced Cleanup Time: By eliminating plastic waste, your team can spend more time patching and less time clearing rubbish from the data center floor.
  • Wholesale Efficiency: Beyond the packaging, we now offer online wholesale access for Blue Cable Co products, allowing procurement teams to view live stock availability and order on Net 30 terms.
