12 ft Cat5e RJ45 patch cable

This Belkin Cat5e cable provides a wired network link between two RJ45 ports. The yellow jacket makes the run easy to identify in a crowded rack or behind a desk. It is built for standard Ethernet connections in home and office environments.

Home and small-office networks

The cable suits anyone who needs a straightforward 12 ft patch lead for a router, switch, access point or desktop PC. Buyers who require shielded cabling, a different length or a higher category rating should consider other options.

Unshielded Cat5e construction

The conductors are unshielded twisted pairs terminated with RJ45 male plugs on both ends. This specification determines whether the cable matches the noise-immunity and performance needs of your installation.

Questions about this item

What length should I choose for a typical desk-to-router run?

The cable is 12 ft long, which covers most desk-to-router or patch-panel distances without excess slack.

What speed will I actually get from this Cat5e cable in my PC?

Cat5e supports up to 1 Gbps Ethernet, so your connection will be limited to gigabit speeds even if your router or switch is faster.

Does the RJ45 connector work with standard gigabit ports?

Yes, both ends use standard RJ45 plugs that fit any gigabit Ethernet port on PCs, routers, switches or patch panels.
