BattleBorn BB-C5MB-5BLK 5 ft Cat5e Ethernet Cable Black

Product Identity

The BattleBorn BB-C5MB-5BLK is a five-foot Cat5e patch cable built for standard gigabit networking. It uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and molded snagless boots to protect the RJ45 clips during frequent moves. The cord is ETL verified to the TIA/EIA 568B wiring standard and rated for bandwidth up to 350 MHz. Black jacketing allows simple colour coding in dense rack or desk installations.

Fit And Limits

This cable suits home offices, small-business networks and temporary patching where 10/100 Mbps or gigabit speeds are required. It does not serve installers who need shielded construction for high-EMI environments or runs that exceed the five-foot length. Buyers planning in-wall or plenum-rated deployments should look at cable types rated for those specific building codes.

Deciding Specification

The Category 5e rating and 350 MHz bandwidth define the maximum data throughput this cord can carry. That figure determines whether the cable matches the speed tier of your switch, router or access point. If your network gear operates above the Cat5e class, a higher-category cable will be necessary to avoid a bottleneck.
