NavePoint Cat5e UTP Ethernet Network Patch Cable 1 FT Gray 10-Pack

Cat5e 10-pack for short runs

This NavePoint Cat5e UTP patch cable kit supplies ten grey cables, each one foot long, for linking network devices in tight spaces. The stranded 24 AWG copper conductors and HD-PE insulation support data rates up to 1 Gbps at 100 MHz. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors with snagless strain-relief boots ensure durable, secure connections. The cables are UL listed and backward compatible with 10/100 Base-T equipment.

Suits dense patching; not for long links

The one-foot length is ideal for rack-to-panel jumpers, switch-to-server connections or any gigabit patch where excess slack is unwanted. Installers running cables through walls, between rooms or across longer cabinet distances need a different cable length, as these leads cannot span those gaps. Buyers requiring shielded twisted-pair construction for noisy environments should also choose another product type.

1 Gbps Cat5e rating decides fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the Category 5e rating with a 100 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps maximum transfer speed. If the network infrastructure operates at or below gigabit speeds, these cables meet the requirement; any installation demanding higher category performance must use a different cable class.
