run patch cable for desk connections

This 0.5 ft Cat5e patch cable suits home-office users who need a tidy link between a wall jack and a nearby router or switch. The white jacket keeps the run visible on light surfaces. It is not intended for long horizontal runs through walls or ceilings where bulk cable belongs.

Snagless boots and stranded conductors simplify

Flexible 24 AWG stranded copper bends around desk legs without kinking. Colour-matched snagless boots protect the latch during repeated insertion and removal. The short length leaves almost no slack, so measure the exact port-to-port distance before ordering.

350 MHz bandwidth covers Gigabit Ethernet

The 350 MHz rating supports 1 Gbps traffic across the half-foot span. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for permanent installations. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 µm resist oxidation better than typical 10 µm plating. Runs beyond the 100 m channel limit will exceed the cable’s design scope.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 0.5ft Cat5e cable is delivering the rated 350MHz bandwidth after connecting it?

Link the cable between two gigabit devices and verify the connection negotiates at 1 Gbps full duplex with no CRC errors; that throughput confirms the 350MHz channel is operating correctly.

What comes in the package and what must I supply separately?

The box contains the single 0.5ft white Cat5e patch cable with snagless strain‑relief boots and 50µm gold‑plated RJ45 contacts; you provide the router, switch or network card to plug it into.

Which version of this cable should I choose for a short rack patch?

Select the 0.5ft white model 111214 when you need the shortest stranded UTP run with 24AWG pure bare copper and 350MHz rating; longer lengths are offered in other listings.
