Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e patch cable supports data transmission speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (1000 Mbps) over Ethernet networks, with a bandwidth rating of 350 MHz. It complies with TIA/EIA-568-B.2 standards for Category 5e cabling, ensuring interoperability with existing network infrastructure and devices.
The stranded copper conductors provide enhanced flexibility compared to solid-core cables, making this patch cable ideal for movable connections where repeated bending may occur. The RJ-45 connectors utilize 8-position, 8-contact (8P8C) modular plugs that mate securely with standard Ethernet ports.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable delivers dependable network performance with several practical benefits for IT professionals and network administrators.
Gold-Plated Contacts
The RJ-45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts that maintain optimal conductivity and resist oxidation over time, ensuring stable network connections with minimal signal loss.
- Enhanced conductivity
- Corrosion resistance
- Long-term reliability
Stranded Construction
The 24 AWG stranded conductors provide superior flexibility for routing through cable management systems and repeated use in patch panel environments without conductor fatigue.
- Improved flexibility
- Durability for frequent handling
- Reduced breakage risk
Non-Booted Design
Without protective boots on the connectors, this cable easily fits in densely populated network racks and patch panels where space constraints require compact connector profiles.
- Space-efficient installation
- Easy insertion/removal
- High-density compatibility
Deployment / Use Cases
This 4-foot Cat5e patch cable is versatile for various networking scenarios where short-distance connections between active equipment are required.
Common applications include connecting computers to wall outlets, linking switches to patch panels in server racks, establishing connections between routers and modems, and interfacing network printers or IP phones with network infrastructure. The blue color provides visual identification for specific network segments or device types in organized cabling systems.
Office Network Patching
Ideal for connecting workstations to network outlets in commercial environments where reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity supports productivity applications and cloud services.
Data Center Interconnections
Suitable for short runs between switches and patch panels in rack-mounted configurations, where the non-booted design facilitates high-density installations.

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 exceeds the minimum 100 MHz requirement for Cat5e specifications, ensuring reliable performance for Gigabit Ethernet applications in office and data center environments.
What are the advantages of stranded conductors versus solid conductors?
Stranded conductors, like those in this 24 AWG cable, consist of multiple thin wires twisted together, providing greater flexibility than solid-core conductors. This makes the cable more durable for frequent handling, bending, and movement in patch panel applications. Stranded construction reduces the risk of conductor breakage when the cable is repeatedly routed or repositioned.
What does 'non-booted' mean for this patch cable?
Non-booted refers to RJ-45 connectors without protective plastic boots covering the connector latch. This design allows for easier insertion and removal in densely populated network racks and patch panels where space is limited. Non-booted connectors have a lower profile that fits better in high-density installations while maintaining secure connections.
What devices can I connect with this patch cable?
This patch cable connects any network devices with standard RJ-45 Ethernet ports, including computers, switches, routers, modems, network-attached storage (NAS) devices, IP phones, network printers, and wireless access points. It's designed for patch connections in office networks, data centers, and home networking setups where reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity is required.
