Cables To Go 15188 network ethernet cable

Cat5e 350 MHz patch cable

This Cat5e patch cable is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and verified to meet TIA/EIA standards. The bonded-pair construction preserves twist spacing to the termination point, reducing impedance and structural return loss compared with standard 100 MHz wire. A shortened body plug keeps near-end crosstalk low. The moulded snagless boot prevents cable snags and adds strain relief during installation.

Installers needing certified Cat5e performance

Suited for structured cabling jobs that require UL-verified Cat5e compliance and a snagless boot for dense patch panels. Buyers who need shielded cable for high-interference environments or a higher category rating such as Cat6 or Cat6a should look elsewhere. The unshielded twisted-pair design also limits use in settings that demand screened construction.

350 MHz bandwidth rating

The 350 MHz rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable meets the headroom required for a given gigabit or fast ethernet link. If the network design calls for a lower frequency spec, a basic 100 MHz cable may suffice; if it demands Cat6 or above, this Cat5e cable will not qualify.
