Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e patch cable supports Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (1000 Mbps) over distances up to 100 meters, with the 50-foot length providing ample reach for most patch and connection scenarios. The cable construction includes minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) protection, which reduces signal interference between adjacent wire pairs to ensure clean and accurate data transmission.
The molded strain relief at each connector enhances durability by preventing cable flexing and bending at the connection points, extending the cable's operational lifespan in high-use environments.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines practical design with performance-oriented features to support reliable network infrastructure. The plenum-rated jacket not only meets fire safety codes but also provides flexibility for installation in various environments without compromising on durability.
Enhanced Signal Integrity
Minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) ensures reduced electromagnetic interference, maintaining signal clarity and data accuracy across connected devices.
- Clean data transmission
- Reduced signal noise
- Stable network performance
Durable Construction
Molded strain relief and snagless boots protect the connectors from physical stress and accidental disconnections, ideal for frequent plugging and unplugging.
- Long-lasting connectors
- Prevents cable damage
- Easy installation
Deployment / Use Cases
This Cat5e patch cable is versatile for both temporary and permanent network setups. Its 50-foot length makes it suitable for connecting devices across rooms, between floors, or in server racks where longer runs are necessary without signal degradation.
Common applications include linking network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels in office buildings, data centers, educational institutions, and retail environments. The plenum jacket allows safe installation in air-handling spaces, while the gray color blends discreetly into most backgrounds.
Office Networking
Connect workstations to network switches or patch panels in commercial offices, supporting stable internet and intranet access for daily operations.
Data Center Patching
Use in server rooms to link equipment in racks, providing reliable backbone connections for servers, storage, and networking hardware.
Physical Profile
The cable features a gray plenum jacket that is both flexible and resistant to flames, meeting NEC and CEC standards for plenum-rated cables. With an approximate weight of 1.07 pounds (485.34 grams), it is lightweight yet robust enough for handling during installation. The snagless boots are color-matched to the gray jacket, offering a cohesive appearance while preventing tangles and snags in cable management systems.
