One-foot Cat5e patch cable

This Monoprice 11260 Cat5e Ethernet cable measures one foot and uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated contacts. It is rated for 350MHz bandwidth and built to UL 444 and TIA-568-C standards. The black jacket carries colour-matched snagless strain-relief boots.

Suits tight patch-panel runs

The short length makes it ideal for connecting a switch to a patch panel or a wall jack to a nearby device inside a rack or cabinet. Installers who need longer horizontal runs, outdoor-rated jackets or shielded construction should look at other cable types.

Verify port spacing and jacket rating

Confirm the one-foot reach covers the distance between your RJ45 ports without tension. Ensure the installation environment accepts unshielded twisted-pair cable with a standard PVC jacket.

Questions about this item

What devices need an RJ45 port to use this 1 ft Cat5e cable?

Any router, switch, PC or NAS with a standard RJ45 jack will accept the snagless connector on this cable.

Will the 350 MHz bandwidth and 24 AWG conductors work with my older 100 Mbps switch?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible and will run at the switch's maximum speed without any configuration.

How can I verify the 50 µm gold contacts are seated correctly after plugging it in?

The link LEDs on both ports should light solid and a cable tester will show all eight pins passing continuity.
