Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e cable utilizes 4-pair unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction with PVC insulation, meeting IEEE 802.3ab standards for Gigabit Ethernet. The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors ensure optimal signal integrity over the 1-ft length, minimizing latency in patch panel and device connections.
The RJ45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts for reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The snagless boot design prevents accidental disconnection in crowded rack environments, while the molded strain relief enhances cable longevity. The CM (Communications Multipurpose) jacket rating indicates suitability for general-purpose use in riser and plenum spaces where fire safety is a concern.
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 is the length of this Tripp Lite Cat5e cable?
This cable measures 1 foot in length, which is equivalent to 0.30 meters. This compact size makes it ideal for short-distance connections between adjacent network equipment in racks, patch panels, or enclosures where minimizing cable clutter is important.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
Both ends of the cable feature RJ45 male connectors. Each end has one RJ45 network connector, making it a standard patch cable for connecting network devices. The connectors include snagless molded boots that provide strain relief and prevent accidental disconnection in crowded installations.
What data transfer rate does this Cat5e cable support?
This cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s (Gigabit per second). It is rated for 350 MHz performance and meets IEEE 802.3ab standards for Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring reliable high-speed network connectivity for compatible devices.
What does the CM jacket rating mean?
CM stands for Communications Multipurpose, indicating the jacket is rated for general-purpose use in commercial buildings. This rating means the cable meets specific fire safety standards for riser and plenum applications, making it suitable for installation in most business and institutional environments.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. It does not include additional shielding layers, which is standard for most Cat5e patch cables in typical office and data center environments. The 4-pair UTP construction provides adequate noise resistance for most short-distance applications.
What warranty comes with this Tripp Lite cable?
Tripp Lite provides a lifetime warranty for this cable. This comprehensive warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, offering long-term reliability assurance for your network infrastructure investments.
