Shielded Cat5E 5 ft patch cable

This FireFold cable is a shielded Cat5E patch lead with RJ45 connectors at both ends. The 5 ft white cord uses 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors in a 4-pair UTP layout with FTP shielding. It is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and tested for NEXT performance beyond 600 MHz. The snagless boot design protects the latch during repeated insertion and removal.

Suited for PoE and dense switch panels

The cord supports IEEE 802.3af and is DTE power compliant, with a PoE rating four times the standard level. Its low-profile hood fits high-density switch ports where space between jacks is tight. Shielding helps reject external noise in electrically noisy environments. Buyers who need longer runs beyond 5 ft or a different jacket colour should choose another length or variant from the same range.

350 MHz FTP rating and 5 ft length

The 350 MHz FTP specification is the single figure that determines whether this cable meets the bandwidth and shielding needs of the installation. At 5 ft it suits short patch connections between a switch and a wall outlet or device. If the project requires a different length, the same series is offered from .5 ft up to 200 ft.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the cable delivers the 350 MHz bandwidth and 600 MHz NEXT performance after installation?

Use a certified cable tester that measures frequency response up to 350 MHz and near-end crosstalk beyond 600 MHz to confirm the FTP link meets Cat5E specifications.

What comes with the cable and do I need any extra components for a PoE connection?

The package contains the 5 ft white shielded Cat5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends; no additional parts are required for IEEE 802.3af PoE because the cord is rated to four times the standard.

Which length should I choose from the .5 ft to 200 ft range for a high-density switch rack?

Select the shortest length that reaches between ports — the low-profile hood is designed for tight spacing, so a 5 ft or shorter cable keeps the rack tidy while maintaining 350 MHz performance.
