Cat5e shielded patch cable for noisy environments

This five-foot Category 5e cable uses shielded twisted-pair construction to protect data signals from electromagnetic interference. RJ45 connectors on both ends are fitted with snagless molded boots that relieve strain during repeated insertion. The black jacket is UL verified to meet TIA/EIA Cat5e standards for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit networks.

Suits installers running links near power lines

Builders who need unshielded cable for short desktop runs or who require Category 6 or 6a bandwidth should consider a different specification. The fixed five-foot length also limits use to equipment racks, patch panels or desktop connections within that reach.

Snagless boots and shielding change daily handling

The molded boot prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during moves, reducing broken tabs and intermittent links. Shielding adds a grounded foil layer that rejects external noise, so the link stays stable when the cable lies alongside electrical conduit or ballasts.

Questions about this item

What devices must I already have with RJ45 ports to use this 5 ft Cat5e patch cable?

You need network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL or cable modems, or patch panels that accept standard RJ45 connectors.

Can I keep using my existing unshielded Cat5 or Cat5e cables in the same network as this shielded cable?

Yes, the shielded Cat5e cable meets the same TIA/EIA standards and will interoperate with unshielded twisted-pair cables on the same network.

How can I verify the cable is performing to Cat5e specification after I install it?

The cable is UL verified to meet all Cat5e TIA/EIA standards; a qualified cable tester can confirm continuity, wiring map and attenuation compliance.
