Cable Leader Cat5e 7ft Gray

The Cable Leader Cat5e Ethernet Cable is a 7ft gray patch cord built for Gigabit wired connections in homes, offices and gaming setups. It uses 24AWG bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts for corrosion-resistant signal integrity. The cable is tested to 350MHz, exceeding the Cat5e minimum, and carries UL & ETL verification plus RoHS compliance.

Installing the snagless RJ45 plugs

The snagless molded boot protects the locking clip and resists tangling during routing through desks, walls or cable trays. Simply align the RJ45 plug with the port and push until the clip clicks; the boot prevents the tab from catching on adjacent cables. Because the cable is unshielded UTP, avoid running it parallel to power cords or fluorescent ballasts to minimise interference.

Buyers needing a simple Gigabit link

This cable suits anyone who wants a stable, low-latency wired connection for routers, switches, consoles, PCs, NAS units or smart TVs without paying for higher-category shielding. It is not for installers who require shielded construction for electrically noisy environments, nor for runs that demand 10 Gigabit throughput over distance.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 7 ft Cat5e cable is delivering a full 1 Gbps link after I plug it in?

Check the link speed in your OS network settings or router status page; it should read 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) for a Gigabit Ethernet connection.

What comes with the cable and do I need any extra parts to connect my router and PC?

The package contains the 7 ft Cat5e patch cable with RJ45 plugs on both ends; no additional connectors or tools are required for a standard router-to-PC link.

Which version or capacity of this cable family should I choose for a typical home Gigabit network?

The C5101 family Cat5e cable tested to 350 MHz supports 1 Gbps up to 100 m, making it the right choice for everyday home and office Gigabit runs.
