100 ft Cat5e patch cable for dense installs

This blue Cat5e patch cable runs 100 ft and uses non-booted RJ45 plugs that seat cleanly in crowded patch panels and keystone jacks. It is built with 24 AWG bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts for reliable signal integrity. The design suits data centres, server rooms and office structured cabling where space is tight.

Cat5e standard limits speed to 1 Gbps

The cable is tested to 350 MHz but the Cat5e standard caps throughput at 1 Gbps over the full 100 ft run. It will not carry 10 Gbps at any distance. Unshielded twisted-pair construction means it is more susceptible to external noise than shielded alternatives in electrically noisy environments.

Non-booted plugs simplify high-density termination

Without a molded boot the connector slides into tightly packed panels and keystones without catching on neighbours, speeding up large-scale installs. The trade-off is less strain relief on the latch tab, so cables that are moved frequently may see the tab snap off over time.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 100 ft blue cable or a different length and color from the C5102 family?

Choose the length that matches your run distance; this 100 ft blue version is one option in the C5102 family which offers multiple lengths and colors for the same Cat5e non-booted specification.

Will the 350 MHz tested rating actually give me Gigabit speeds on my 1000BASE-T network?

Yes, the cable is built to the Cat5e standard and tested to 350 MHz, which supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) across the full 100 ft length.

What does the non-booted RJ45 design mean for patch panel density and airflow?

Without a molded boot the plug seats easily in tightly packed patch panels and keystone jacks, improving airflow and keeping high-density cable runs tidy.
