Belkin Cat 5E Patch Cable

This Belkin A3L791-03-RED-S cable provides a 3 ft wired link for Local Area Network connections. It uses unshielded copper conductors inside a red PVC jacket. Both ends terminate in RJ-45 male connectors compliant with IEEE 802.3. The cable suits desktop PCs, routers and switches needing a short, colour-coded run.

Sustained Signal Integrity

Cat 5E rating supports continuous 10/100 Base-T traffic without the dropouts seen on longer or lower-grade leads. Copper conductors maintain stable throughput across the full 3 ft length during extended file transfers or streaming sessions. The PVC jacket resists everyday abrasion behind desks or along skirting boards. No shielding is fitted, so routing away from power cables preserves performance.

Critical Specification — Cat 5E Class

The Category 5E classification is the single figure that decides fit: it guarantees 100 Mbps bandwidth over this distance. Buyers needing Gigabit or 10 Gbps speeds must select a higher-category cable. Installers requiring shielded pairs for noisy electrical environments should choose a different construction. Length is fixed at 3 ft and cannot be extended without a coupler.

Questions about this item

Does the 3 ft red Cat 5e cable generate any heat or noise when carrying data all day?

No, the copper conductors and PVC jacket are completely passive, so the cable produces no heat and makes no sound during continuous use.

What devices must I already have to use the RJ-45 male connectors on this cable?

You need two pieces of equipment with standard RJ-45 ports, such as a router, switch, PC, game console or network printer.

Will this Cat 5e patch cable work with my older 10 Base-T hub that only runs at 10 Mbps?

Yes, the cable supports 10/100 Base-T networks, so it is fully compatible with legacy 10 Mbps hardware.
