What this cable is and who it serves

This seven-foot red Cat 5e patch cable connects two RJ-45 ports for basic wired networking. It suits home-office users, small-business setups or anyone adding a single device to a router or switch. The Category 5e rating supports 10 and 100 Base-T Ethernet speeds. Buyers who need gigabit or faster links should choose a higher-category cable instead.

How it fits into a network build

The cable plugs directly into any standard RJ-45 jack on a computer, router, switch or wall plate with no extra adapters. Its unshielded round construction keeps routing simple in open trays or along baseboards. The seven-foot length reaches nearby equipment without leaving long coils to manage. Installations that run through high-interference areas or require in-wall rating will need a different cable type.

What the bundled details change

A lifetime limited warranty from Belkin covers the cable against defects for as long as you own it. The red jacket makes the run easy to identify among other cables in a busy patch panel or desk cluster. Both ends use standard RJ-45 male connectors compliant with IEEE 802.3, so no proprietary locking tabs or special tools are involved.

Questions about this item

Does the unshielded 7 ft red cable run hot or make noise on a continuous link?

The cable is passive with no active components, so it generates no heat and no noise regardless of how long it runs.

What devices must the buyer already own for the RJ-45 male IEEE 802.3 connectors to work?

Any two devices with standard RJ-45 Ethernet ports — such as a router, switch, PC or NAS — will connect directly with this cable.

At what speed does the Cat 5e rating first limit sustained throughput on this 7 ft run?

The Category 5e specification caps performance at 100 Mbps for 100 Base-T networks, so sustained throughput cannot exceed that rate.
