Leviton Category 5 10 ft Cable

This Leviton Category 5 patch cable provides a wired network link for home or office equipment. The 10 ft length suits connections between a router, switch, modem or wall outlet and a nearby device such as a PC, smart TV, gaming console, VoIP phone, IP camera or NAS.

Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors

Each end carries an RJ-45 male plug with 50 micro inches of gold over 100 micro inches of nickel, a finish that resists corrosion and maintains low contact resistance over repeated insertions. The standard RJ-45 form factor fits any Ethernet port on routers, switches, patch panels, printers, adapters and consumer electronics without adapters.

Category 5 bandwidth limit

The Category 5 rating supports Fast Ethernet speeds up to 100 Mbps, which is adequate for basic internet access, file sharing and standard-definition streaming. It does not meet the bandwidth requirements of Gigabit or multi-gigabit networks, so builders planning higher-speed infrastructure should select a higher-category cable.
