7 ft Cat5e patch cable

This seven-foot Cat5e patch cable uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The unshielded twisted-pair construction is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth. Snagless strain-relief boots protect the connector tabs during repeated insertion and removal.

Check device ports and run length

Verify that each endpoint has a standard RJ45 jack and that the total channel length stays within the limits for Cat5e performance. The stranded conductor design is intended for flexible patching rather than permanent in-wall installation. Ensure the connected hardware supports the speeds you require.

Build quality and daily use

The cable meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for pure bare copper wiring, avoiding copper-clad aluminium substitutes. Gold plating on the contacts resists oxidation over many mating cycles. The short-body connector and colour-matched boots keep the plug profile low and reduce accidental disconnects in tight spaces.

Questions about this item

Does the cable arrive ready to plug in or do I need separate RJ45 connectors?

The cable is a finished patch cord with RJ45 plugs on both ends and colour-matched snagless boots already fitted, so no extra connectors are required.

Should I choose a different length or colour for a 350 MHz Cat5e run?

This listing is the 7 ft black version; the same 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper construction and 50 µm gold contacts are offered in other lengths and colours if the run demands it.

What does the 350 MHz rating mean for actual network speed?

The 350 MHz bandwidth supports the full Cat5e specification, delivering reliable gigabit Ethernet performance over the 7 ft distance with 24 AWG pure bare copper conductors.
