Network cable for 10/100 Base-T LANs

This Cat 5e patch cable connects computers, routers and switches in a Local Area Network. The two-foot length suits short runs between adjacent devices. Yellow jacket colour helps identify the link in a crowded rack or desk. Both ends carry RJ45 plugs for standard Ethernet ports.

Unshielded UTP construction with gold contacts

The cable uses unshielded twisted-pair wiring and 50-micron gold-plated connectors for clean signal transfer. It exceeds the Category 5e performance requirement for 10/100 Base-T traffic. No shielding means the cable stays flexible and easy to route around corners. Power draw and noise are not applicable to a passive copper link.

Replaces shorter or damaged Cat 5 patch leads

Use this cable when an existing lead is too short, broken or missing. The jump is worth it whenever a reliable 10/100 Base-T connection is needed over a two-foot span. It does not serve runs that require Gigabit or higher speeds, longer distances or shielded cabling. Buyers needing PoE, outdoor rating or different colours should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I install the RJ45 connectors on this 2 ft Cat 5E cable, and what step do people often get wrong?

Align the tab on each RJ45 plug with the port notch, then push straight in until it clicks. The common mistake is forcing the connector upside down, which bends the 50-micron gold pins inside the plug.

What maintenance or replacement will this UTP patch cable need later?

No scheduled maintenance is required. Replace the cable if the RJ45 latch breaks, the yellow jacket shows kinks or cuts, or connectivity drops on your 10/100 Base-T link.

What limit appears first when this Cat 5E cable runs at 100 Mbps continuously?

The 2 ft length keeps signal loss well within the Cat 5E spec, so the first limit is usually the 100 Mbps ceiling of the 10/100 Base-T network itself.
