Lumenzi Cat 5e Ethernet Cable 3 FT Blue 6 Pack 350 MHz Shielded

Ready-to-use 3 ft Cat 5e cable pack

This six-pack supplies 3 ft shielded Cat 5e patch cords with gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends. Each cable uses 100 % bare copper conductors and a PVC jacket rated for indoor and outdoor use. The snagless boot protects the locking clip during repeated insertion. Bandwidth is specified at 350 MHz and the link supports up to 1 Gbps data transfer.

Check your port speed and run length

Verify that the devices you are connecting have RJ45 ports capable of 1 Gbps operation; older 100 Mbps ports will limit throughput. Ensure the 3 ft length reaches between your router, switch, console or camera without tension — longer runs require a single continuous cable rather than daisy-chaining shorts. The shielded design helps in electrically noisy areas but needs grounded equipment to be effective.

Replaces shorter or unshielded Cat 5e leads

These cords upgrade from non-shielded or CCA patch cables that suffer higher crosstalk and corrosion over time. The bare copper conductors and gold contacts restore full 1 Gbps headroom where cheaper cables bottleneck at 100 MHz. The jump is worth it when you need reliable outdoor burial, UV resistance or a tidy rack of identical short links.
