10-Foot Cat5e Patch Cable for Wired Networks

This 10-foot blue Ethernet cable connects computers, routers and switches using standard RJ45 plugs. It uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and unshielded twisted pairs rated for 350MHz bandwidth. The cable suits home offices, small-business LANs and any device with a Gigabit Ethernet port.

Practical Limits of Cat5e 350MHz UTP

The 350MHz rating supports Gigabit Ethernet up to the 100-metre channel limit defined by TIA-568-C. Unshielded twisted-pair construction resists crosstalk in typical indoor runs but offers no protection against strong external electromagnetic interference. Pure bare copper meets UL 444 fire-safety requirements, unlike copper-clad aluminium alternatives.

Snagless Boots and Gold Contacts for Reliable

Colour-matched snagless strain-relief boots protect the latch during routing through tight spaces or cable trays. Fifty-micron gold-plated contacts resist oxidation and maintain low resistance over repeated insertions. The stranded conductor makes the cable flexible for patch-panel or desk-side use, though solid-core cable is preferred for permanent in-wall installations.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 10 foot blue cable or a different length for my desk setup?

The 10 foot blue cable gives you 3.048 metres of reach, which suits typical desk-to-router runs without excess slack.

What does the 350 MHz rating actually deliver when I plug this into my router and PC?

The 350 MHz bandwidth supports full Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 100 metres, so a 10 foot run will carry 1 Gbps with plenty of margin.

Is the RJ45 connector on this Cat5e cable compatible with my Gigabit switch ports?

Yes, the 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts meet TIA-568-C pin-out and work with any standard Gigabit Ethernet port.
