Belkin Cat 5E 100 ft cable

The Belkin A3L791-100-S is a 100 ft Category 5E patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is built for wired Local Area Network connections using copper conductors and a gray PVC jacket. The snagless mouldings protect the connector tabs during installation and removal. This length suits runs between rooms or across office floors.

Practical limits of Cat 5E

Category 5E supports 10/100 Base-T networks at 100 MHz bandwidth. It does not carry the higher frequencies required for Gigabit or multi-gigabit Ethernet standards. The unshielded twisted-pair construction offers no protection against external electromagnetic interference in noisy environments. Maximum certified channel length remains 100 metres for the supported speeds.

Deciding spec: 100 ft length

The 100 ft length is the single figure that determines fit for a given cable run. Measure the exact path including vertical rises and slack before ordering. Buyers who need longer single runs or shielded cable for industrial settings should look elsewhere. The fixed length cannot be shortened without re-terminating both connectors.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 100 ft gray version or a shorter length for my network run?

The 100 ft gray Cat 5E cable suits runs up to 100 metres; choose a shorter length only if the distance between devices is less and you want less slack.

What does the Cat 5E rating mean for actual throughput on my 10/100 Base-T LAN?

Cat 5E supports 10/100 Base-T speeds, so the cable will carry full 100 Mbps bandwidth across the 100 ft run without bottleneck.

How does the RJ-45 IEEE 802.3 connector limit the cable's performance in practice?

The RJ-45 male IEEE 802.3 connectors match standard Ethernet ports, capping the link at the 10/100 Base-T rate the cable is rated for.
