Shielded Cat5e Patch Cable

The Cables To Go 27246 is a 5 ft shielded Ethernet cable built for network connections that run through electrically noisy environments. It uses 4-pair 24 AWG stranded STP conductors and RJ45 connectors on both ends to link adapters, switches, routers, modems and patch panels. The blue jacket allows quick colour-coding in structured cabling jobs. It is supplied new and UL verified to meet Cat 5e TIA/EIA standards.

Sustained signal integrity

Shielded construction blocks EMI and RFI continuously along the full 1.52 m length, so throughput remains stable when cables sit near power lines, fluorescent ballasts or industrial equipment. The molded strain-relief boot prevents connector fatigue from repeated movement or vibration, keeping contact resistance low over long installations. Performance meets or exceeds industry limits for NEXT and return loss under constant load.

Shielding for high-noise runs

Choose this cable when the installation path crosses sources of electromagnetic interference that would degrade an unshielded patch lead. Buyers who need longer reach, different colour coding or an unshielded cable for quiet office runs should select another model.

Questions about this item

Does the shielded construction stop EMI or RFI noise from affecting the link when the cable runs all day near power cables?

The shielded Cat5e design with 24 AWG stranded STP conductors protects against EMI and RFI interference in high-noise environments.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to connect them?

Network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL or cable modems and patch panels with RJ45 sockets.

Will the Cat5e rating and RJ45 plugs work with the Cat5 wall plates and switches I already own?

The cable meets Cat5e TIA/EIA standards and uses RJ45 connectors, so it fits existing Cat5 wall plates and switches.
