Belkin Cat 5E 15 ft Patch Cable

This Belkin A3L791-15 is a 15 ft Category 5e patch cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. It uses 24 AWG bare stranded copper conductors and features 50 micron gold-plated contacts for reliable connectivity. The grey jacket is unshielded and rated for a characteristic impedance of 100±15 ohms at 1 to 100 MHz.

Suits home and office Gigabit Ethernet links

It suits anyone connecting routers, switches or PCs at up to 1 Gbps over a 15 ft run. Builders who need shielded cable for noisy environments, longer distances or bandwidth beyond Cat 5e specifications should look at a different cable type.

Cat 5E rating determines maximum bandwidth

The single specification that decides fit is the Cat 5E classification, which supports up to 1 Gbps Ethernet. Verify that your network equipment does not require Cat 6 or higher for your intended speed before purchasing.

Questions about this item

At what length does a Cat 5e patch cable reach its 100 MHz bandwidth limit?

This 15 ft cable meets Cat 5e specifications up to the standard 100 m channel limit, so the 15 ft length itself is not the limiting factor for 100 MHz performance.

Does the unshielded 24 AWG stranded copper construction affect heat or noise during continuous PoE use?

The bare stranded copper conductors have a maximum resistance of 89.2 Ω/km at 20 °C, so heat rise is minimal at typical PoE currents and the cable produces no audible noise.

Will the 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors mate with my existing keystone jacks and switch ports?

Yes, the RJ45 male connectors follow the standard 8P8C pinout and fit any Cat 5e or Cat 6 keystone jack, patch panel or switch port.
