100ft Cat5e Non-Booted Patch Cable

This 100-foot Cat5e cable delivers a Gigabit Ethernet connection using 24AWG bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The non-booted plug design is built for high-density patch panels and keystone jacks where space is tight. It suits structured cabling in data centers, server rooms and offices. The yellow jacket aids quick visual identification in crowded racks.

Cat5e Standard Limits 350MHz Tested

The Cat5e standard supports 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, and this cable is tested to 350MHz for margin above the base specification. It is an unshielded twisted pair cable, so it does not protect against external electromagnetic interference in noisy environments. Bandwidth is limited compared to Cat6 or Cat6a categories, so it cannot carry 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds. PoE devices are supported within the standard power budgets.

Non-Booted Plug Eases Dense Installs

The non-booted RJ45 plugs insert and release easily in tightly packed patch panels without snagging on adjacent cables. This design improves airflow and simplifies cable management in high-density racks. Installers should ensure the latch engages fully because the absent boot removes the tactile click feedback found on booted connectors. Cable strain relief relies on proper routing rather than a molded boot.

Questions about this item

Which length and color should I pick for a 100 ft yellow run?

This listing is the 100 ft yellow variant; other lengths and colors exist in the same C5102 family if you need a different run.

What does the 350 MHz rating deliver in a live Gigabit link?

Tested to 350 MHz, the cable exceeds the Cat5e 100 MHz baseline and supports 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet over the full 100 ft distance.

How does the non-booted RJ45 plug affect patch-panel density?

Without a molded boot the 8P8C plug seats cleanly in high-density patch panels and keystone jacks, improving airflow and easing cable management.
