Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat5e patch cable utilizes a 4-pair unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design with solid copper conductors, optimized for minimal crosstalk and reliable data transfer up to 1 Gbps over its 30-foot length. The RJ45 connectors are precision-molded to the cable ends, featuring integrated boots that protect the connector latch from damage and provide strain relief during frequent plugging and unplugging cycles.
The cable's 350 MHz bandwidth rating exceeds the base Cat5e requirement, supporting enhanced performance for demanding network environments. Its PVC jacket is flexible yet durable, resistant to everyday wear, and the blue color aids in cable identification and organization within racks or cable management systems.
