2 ft Cat5e UTP patch cable

This 2 ft Cat5e UTP patch cable provides a short Ethernet link for networking devices in tight spaces. It uses 24AWG 4 pair stranded conductors wired to the T-568B standard with RJ45 connectors. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 micron support a tested bandwidth of 350 MHz. The red jacket aids quick cable identification.

Thermals noise and power

Passive copper construction produces no heat and no audible noise during operation. The cable draws no external power and adds negligible resistance to the Ethernet circuit. Molded strain relief and a snag-free boot protect the connector from bending stress and accidental disconnection.

Upgrade from longer or damaged cables

Replaces longer cables that create clutter or damaged leads that cause intermittent links. The 2 ft length suits rack-to-panel or desktop-to-switch runs where excess slack is unwanted. Buyers needing runs beyond 2 ft or shielded cable for high-interference environments should select a different length or cable type.

Questions about this item

How do I insert the RJ45 plug without bending the pins, and what step causes damage?

Hold the connector body, not the cable, and push straight in until the tab clicks. The step people get wrong is pulling the cable sideways, which bends the gold-plated contacts inside the plug.

When will the 50-micron gold-plated contacts need replacement?

The gold plating resists oxidation for the life of the cable under normal indoor use. Replace the cable only if the connector tab breaks or the strain relief cracks from repeated bending.

What limit appears first on a 350 MHz Cat5e run during sustained gigabit traffic?

The 24 AWG stranded conductors and 350 MHz rating support full gigabit speeds at this length. The first limit is physical — the 2 ft length restricts placement, not signal quality.
