run patch cable

The Monoprice 111206 is a .5 ft Cat5e Ethernet patch cord built for tight device-to-switch links inside a rack or on a desk. Stranded 24AWG pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for communications wiring.

Flexboot strain relief

Colour-matched snagless boots protect the RJ45 latch during repeated insertion and removal. Fifty-micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion better than the 10-micron plating found on many budget cables.

UTP construction and bandwidth

Unshielded twisted-pair geometry supports 350 MHz bandwidth for Gigabit Ethernet traffic. The short .1524 metre length keeps insertion loss minimal in typical indoor patching scenarios.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Cat5e 350 MHz rating support in practice?

The 350 MHz bandwidth handles Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps over the full 0.5 ft length without signal loss.

What physical clearance does the snagless boot need at the RJ45 port?

The colour-matched snagless strain-relief boot fits standard RJ45 jacks and needs only the normal port depth; no extra clearance is required.

How is the stranded 24 AWG pure bare copper cable terminated, and what step avoids a bad connection?

Each end uses 50 µm gold-plated contacts on a short-body RJ45 plug; press the tab until it clicks to seat the pins fully.
