100 ft Cat5e patch cable for dense installs

This 100 ft Cat5e Ethernet cable provides a Gigabit wired link using 24 AWG bare copper conductors and gold-plated RJ45 contacts. It is tested to 350 MHz and rated for 1000BASE-T performance. The black jacket suits structured cabling in data centres, server rooms and offices.

Non-booted plug eases high-density patching

The non-booted RJ45 design removes the molded boot so the connector seats cleanly in tightly packed patch panels and keystone jacks. This improves airflow around dense cable bundles and simplifies cable management during moves or additions. The 50-micron gold contacts maintain reliable signal integrity.

Check connector spacing before ordering

Verify that your patch panel or keystone jack spacing accepts non-booted plugs without interference from adjacent cables. Ensure the 100 ft length matches the run distance required for your installation. This cable is unshielded UTP, so confirm the environment does not demand shielded cabling.

Questions about this item

Will the 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts need re-plating or replacement over time?

The 50-micron gold plating on the RJ45 contacts resists corrosion and maintains conductivity for the cable's lifetime under normal use; no re-plating or contact replacement is expected.

What bandwidth limit appears first when running continuous 1 Gbps traffic on this 350 MHz tested Cat5e cable?

The Cat5e standard caps sustained throughput at 1 Gbps, so the 1000BASE-T rate is the first limit reached even though the cable is tested to 350 MHz.

Does the unshielded 24AWG bare copper construction run hot or draw extra power during all-day PoE operation?

The cable carries only the power the PoE device negotiates; 24AWG bare copper adds minimal resistance, so heat rise and power loss stay negligible in continuous use.
