Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e patch cable supports Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) network standards, making it suitable for connecting network devices, distribution panels, and workstations. The cable construction minimizes Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) to maintain signal integrity and reduce interference in dense cabling environments.
The molded strain relief connectors provide added durability at connection points, while the stranded conductors offer flexibility for routing through tight spaces. Power over Ethernet (PoE) support enables the cable to deliver both data and power to compatible devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Cable Length, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

User Manual
FAQ
What network speeds does this Cat5e patch cable support?
This Cat5e patch cable supports Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) network standards. It is suitable for most office and home network applications requiring reliable data transmission for internet access, file sharing, and network device connectivity.
What are the connector types on each end of this cable?
Both ends of this patch cable feature standard RJ45 male connectors. Each end has one RJ45 network connector with gold-plated contacts for optimal electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The molded connectors include strain relief to prevent damage at connection points.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this Cat5e patch cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It can deliver both data and power to compatible devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, security cameras, and other PoE-enabled network equipment. The 24 AWG copper conductors provide sufficient current capacity for standard PoE implementations.
What does the CMG jacket rating mean for this cable?
The CMG jacket rating indicates this cable meets specific fire safety standards for commercial installations. CMG-rated cables are suitable for use in plenum spaces and other areas where fire resistance is important. The PVC jacket material provides durability while complying with commercial building code requirements.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable with no additional shielding. Cat5e UTP cables rely on the twisted pair design to minimize electromagnetic interference. This makes the cable more flexible and easier to install than shielded alternatives while still providing reliable performance for most office and data center environments.
What warranty comes with this patch cable?
This StarTech.com patch cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, providing long-term assurance of quality and reliability for your network infrastructure investments.
