What it is

This is a Category 5e UTP patch cable built for network devices. It measures one foot long and carries RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with gold-flash contacts. The stranded construction and booted, snagless design protect the clip during repeated insertions. It suits installers and home users who need a short, reliable link.

When to choose it

It replaces longer or unbooted cables that leave excess slack or catch on adjacent ports. The jump is worth it when a tidy, one-foot reach between a switch, router or wall jack and a device reduces cable management time. Builders who need more length or a different colour should look elsewhere.

Capacity and headroom

The 26 AWG stranded conductors handle standard Cat5e data rates for typical desktop, printer or access-point connections. The short run keeps attenuation low and crosstalk well within spec. It runs out when the installation demands gigabit speeds over distances beyond the Cat5e channel limit or requires shielded cable for noisy environments.

Questions about this item

What RJ-45 connectors does the 1 ft cable use?

Both ends are RJ-45 male connectors with gold-flash contact plating.

How do I install the booted snagless cable without damaging the tab?

Push the connector straight in until the boot clicks; the snagless boot protects the latch tab from catching on adjacent cables.

When should I replace the stranded 26 AWG patch cable?

Replace it if the boots crack, the latch tabs break, or the cable shows kinks that affect network performance.
