50ft Cat5e Patch Cable for Gigabit LAN

This 50-foot Cat5e Ethernet cable provides a wired Gigabit connection for home, office and gaming networks. It uses 24AWG bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs with gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The cable is tested to 350MHz, well above the 100MHz Cat5e baseline, and features a snagless boot to protect the locking clip during installation.

Suited for 1Gbps links; not for multi-gig needs

It fits routers, switches, modems, PCs, consoles, NAS units and smart TVs that run at 1000BASE-T speeds. The unshielded UTP design keeps the cable flexible for typical indoor runs. Buyers who require bandwidth beyond 1Gbps should consider higher-category cabling instead.

Tested to 350MHz on the Cat5e standard

The 350MHz test rating is the key specification that confirms headroom for reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance. This margin above the 100MHz minimum supports stable, low-latency throughput for streaming, video calls and online gaming over the full 50ft length.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports so this 50ft Cat5e cable can connect them?

Any router, modem, switch, PC, console, NAS or smart TV with a standard RJ45 jack will accept the 8P8C plugs on this cable.

Will the 350MHz tested bandwidth still deliver 1Gbps when plugged into a 100MHz Cat5e port on older gear?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible and will run at the port's 100MHz rating while maintaining Gigabit Ethernet speeds.

How can I confirm the gold-plated contacts are seated correctly after plugging the cable in?

The snagless boot clicks securely and the link LEDs on both devices should light up, showing a live Gigabit connection.
