Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e patch cable supports data transmission speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second over Ethernet networks, with a bandwidth rating of 350 MHz. The stranded copper conductors enhance cable flexibility and reduce breakage risk compared to solid-core alternatives, making it ideal for patch cord applications where movement is common.
The RJ45 connectors comply with TIA/EIA-568 standards, ensuring compatibility with network equipment from major manufacturers. Gold plating on the contacts provides low resistance and reliable connectivity over thousands of insertion cycles.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable delivers consistent performance for Gigabit Ethernet networks, with gold-plated contacts that maintain signal clarity and reduce packet loss. The non-booted connectors allow easy access in tight spaces, while the stranded construction withstands repeated bending without conductor fatigue.
Durable Build
24 AWG stranded conductors offer superior flexibility and longevity compared to solid-core cables, reducing the risk of breakage in dynamic environments.
- Withstands frequent handling
- Ideal for patch panel use
- Resists conductor fatigue
Optimized Connectivity
Gold-plated RJ45 contacts ensure low insertion loss and reliable data transmission, supporting high-speed network applications without signal degradation.
- Enhanced corrosion resistance
- Maintains signal integrity
- Compatible with standard network gear
Deployment / Use Cases
This 4-foot Cat5e patch cable is perfect for connecting network devices in rack-mounted setups, such as linking switches to patch panels or routers to modems. Its short length minimizes cable clutter while providing sufficient reach for adjacent equipment in server rooms and network cabinets.
Common applications include office workstations, home networking setups, POS systems, and VoIP phone connections. The cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications for devices like IP cameras and wireless access points, delivering both data and power over a single connection.

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) over Ethernet networks. It has a bandwidth rating of 350 MHz, which is sufficient for Gigabit Ethernet applications including file transfers, video streaming, and VoIP communications.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices?
Yes, this Cat5e patch cable supports Power over Ethernet applications. The 24 AWG stranded conductors can carry both data and power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, making it suitable for integrated network deployments.
What does 'non-booted' mean for the RJ45 connectors?
Non-booted connectors lack the protective rubber boot that typically covers the connector latch. This design makes the connectors more compact and easier to insert and remove in high-density network environments where space between ports is limited, though they offer slightly less strain relief than booted versions.
How does stranded conductor construction benefit this patch cable?
Stranded conductors consist of multiple thin wires twisted together, making the cable more flexible and resistant to breakage from repeated bending. This construction is ideal for patch cables that are frequently moved or routed around corners, as it reduces the risk of conductor fatigue compared to solid-core cables.
