FAQ

What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat5e patch cable?

This Cat5e patch cable supports Ethernet standards up to 1000BASE-T, delivering data rates up to 1 Gbps. It is suitable for Gigabit Ethernet networks, providing reliable performance for high-speed data transmission in office and home environments.

How does the snagless boot design benefit installation?

The snagless boots protect the RJ-45 connector clips from catching on other cables, equipment, or surfaces during routing. This design reduces the risk of damage to the connectors, simplifies cable management, and speeds up installation in tight or crowded spaces.

Are the connectors gold-plated, and why is that important?

Yes, the RJ-45 connectors feature 50-micron gold plating. Gold resists oxidation and corrosion better than other metals, ensuring optimal electrical conductivity over time. This helps maintain network signal integrity and reduces signal loss, leading to more reliable connections.

What is the cable length, and is it suitable for long-distance runs?

The cable is 4 ft (1.22 m) long, making it ideal for short-distance patching between nearby devices. For longer runs, consider using longer patch cables or structured cabling, as Cat5e is typically used for distances up to 100 meters, but this specific model is optimized for close-proximity connections.

Is this cable RoHS compliant, and what does that mean?

Yes, this cable is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant. This means it is manufactured without certain hazardous materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium, making it environmentally friendly and safe for use in various settings while meeting regulatory standards.

What warranty does this patch cable come with?

This patch cable is backed by a lifetime warranty from StarTech.com. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, providing long-term assurance and support for your network infrastructure investments.
