Shielded Cat5e Patch Cable

This Monoprice 106357 cable is a 25ft shielded twisted-pair (STP) Cat5e patch cord built with 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors. It is rated for 350MHz bandwidth and terminated with RJ45 plugs for standard wired networking. The grey jacket suits home, office or rack installations where interference rejection matters. It arrives ready to use without field termination.

Verify Ports And Required Reach

Confirm that both endpoints use RJ45 sockets and that the 25ft (7.62m) length covers the run with enough slack for routing and strain relief. Check that your switch, router or wall jack supports at least Cat5e performance so the 350MHz rating can be utilised. Ensure the pathway can accommodate the shielded cable’s slightly larger diameter compared with unshielded alternatives.

Fits Standard Gigabit Links

The STP construction helps suppress alien crosstalk and external EMI, freeing the link from noise that can degrade throughput on longer runs. Stranded conductors make the cable flexible for patch-panel-to-device connections or temporary deployments. The 24AWG gauge keeps voltage drop low over the full 25ft span while maintaining compatibility with PoE equipment that follows the base standard.

Questions about this item

Does the 25 ft gray Cat5e cable come terminated with RJ45 plugs or do I need to crimp my own?

The cable arrives with RJ45 connectors already fitted on both ends, so no crimping tools or separate plugs are required.

When should I pick the 24 AWG stranded 25 ft version instead of a solid-core or longer length?

Choose this 24 AWG stranded 25 ft cable for flexible patch leads up to 7.62 metres; solid-core is for fixed runs and longer lengths add attenuation.

What does the 350 MHz rating mean for actual throughput on a 25 ft run?

The 350 MHz bandwidth supports gigabit Ethernet speeds across the full 25 ft length with shielded twisted-pair construction reducing interference.
