Belkin Cat 5e 12 ft patch cable

This Belkin Cat 5e patch cable measures 12 ft and uses unshielded twisted-pair construction with RJ45 male connectors at both ends. It is intended for standard home and office network connections. The red jacket provides easy visual identification in crowded cable runs. Condition is new.

10/100 Base-T capacity and headroom

The cable supports 10/100 Base-T Ethernet, so it handles typical broadband speeds and local file transfers without bottleneck. It will not carry Gigabit or faster signals reliably, so networks requiring 1 Gbps or higher should use a higher-category cable. Maximum run length follows the 100-metre channel limit for Cat 5e.

Cat 5e interface practical limits

As a Cat 5e UTP patch cord, it is rated for frequencies up to 100 MHz and distances up to 100 metres in a full channel. Performance drops when runs exceed that length or when connectors are poorly terminated. Shielded environments or high-interference areas may require shielded cable instead.
