30 ft Cat5e patch cable for Gigabit networks

This 30 ft Cat5e Ethernet patch cable connects PCs, laptops, routers, switches, modems, gaming consoles and other RJ45 devices. It is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and supports Gigabit (1000BASE-T) and Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX) speeds. The blue PVC jacket uses ultra-flexible construction for routing in home or office environments. CCA conductors with 50 micron gold-plated contacts complete the link.

Category 5e rating and 350 MHz bandwidth

The single specification that decides suitability is the Cat5e rating with 350 MHz tested bandwidth, which guarantees Gigabit throughput up to 100 metres. Buyers who need 10 Gigabit or certified Cat6 performance cannot use this cable. The CCA conductors meet the electrical requirements for the stated speeds but are not solid copper.

Snagless boots and molded strain relief

Molded strain relief boots and a snagless cable boot protect the RJ45 latch during insertion and removal, reducing the chance of a broken tab. The ultra-flexible PVC jacket eases routing around corners and through tight spaces. No tools are required; simply push each connector until it clicks. The only common issue is a latch that fails to engage if the port is recessed or damaged.

Questions about this item

Will a 350 MHz Cat5e cable actually run at Gigabit speed on my PC?

The cable is rated for 350 MHz and supports 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, so it will carry Gigabit Ethernet across the full 30 ft length.

What does the Cat5e rating mean for the maximum data rate I can get?

Cat5e is specified for 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX; the cable will deliver up to 1 Gbps on compatible equipment.

Will the snagless boots and RJ45 plugs fit a standard wall jack or switch port?

Both ends use standard RJ45 connectors with molded strain relief and snagless boots designed for regular Ethernet ports.
