Key Product Advantages
This patch cable delivers consistent network performance with several practical benefits for IT professionals and network administrators.
Reliable Connectivity
Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure low-resistance connections and protect against oxidation for stable data transfer over time.
- Enhanced signal integrity
- Corrosion-resistant contacts
Flexible Installation
The 24 AWG stranded construction allows the cable to bend and route easily through cable management systems without compromising performance.
- Easier cable routing
- Reduced installation stress
Visual Identification
The distinctive purple color helps with cable organization and identification in complex network setups, reducing configuration errors.
- Quick visual sorting
- Simplified cable management
Deployment / Use Cases
This 15-foot Cat5e patch cable is ideal for connecting network devices within rack enclosures, workstations, and office environments where moderate-distance Ethernet links are required.
Common applications include connecting computers to wall jacks, linking switches to patch panels, extending connections between network equipment in server rooms, and providing temporary network access during installations or reconfigurations. The non-booted design is particularly useful in high-density patch panels where space is limited.
Office Network Expansion
Connect workstations to network switches or extend connections between office equipment with this reliable 15-foot cable.
Data Center Patching
Use in server racks to link switches, routers, and servers while benefiting from the flexible stranded construction for tight cable management.

FAQ
What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat5e cable?
This Category 5e patch cable supports data transmission speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (1000 Mbps) for 1000BASE-T networks, along with compatibility with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet standards. The 350 MHz bandwidth rating ensures reliable performance for most office and data center networking requirements.
Are both ends of this cable the same connector type?
Yes, both ends feature identical RJ-45 male connectors with gold-plated contacts. Each end has one RJ-45 network connector, making this a straight-through patch cable suitable for connecting computers to switches, routers to patch panels, or any standard Ethernet device connections.
What does 'non-booted' mean for this patch cable?
Non-booted refers to the connector design without a protective boot or cover over the RJ-45 connector latch. This streamlined design allows for easier insertion and removal in high-density patch panels where space is limited, while still providing secure connections. The exposed latch is more accessible for disconnection when needed.
How does the stranded conductor construction benefit installation?
The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors provide greater flexibility compared to solid-core cables, making the cable easier to route through tight spaces, cable management trays, and around corners without kinking or damaging the internal wires. This flexibility also reduces stress on the connectors during frequent handling and repositioning.
