NavePoint Cat5e UTP Ethernet Network Patch Cable 50 FT Black

SKU CH-AJH1-1P8AM

A 50 ft Cat5e UTP patch cable with stranded copper conductors and snagless boots for 1 Gbps network connections

  • Product colorBlack
  • Snagless boots protect the RJ45 tabs during frequent moves
  • Stranded 24 AWG copper conductors keep the cable flexible for tight routing
  • Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for a reliable Gigabit link
  • 100 MHz bandwidth supports 1 Gbps throughput on 10/100/1000 Base-T networks
  • 50 FT length reaches distant outlets without signal loss

Cable Category and Length

This NavePoint Cat5e UTP patch cable spans 50 FT and uses stranded 24 AWG copper with HD-PE insulation. It is UL Listed and rated for 100 MHz bandwidth, supporting data rates up to 1 Gbps over 10/100/1000 Base-T networks. Snagless boots protect the gold-plated RJ45 connectors during repeated insertion.

Suitable Uses and Limits

The cable suits home offices, small-business LANs and patch-panel runs where Gigabit speed is sufficient. Builders who need 10 Gbps or higher throughput should look elsewhere, as the Cat5e rating stops at 1 Gbps. Installers requiring plenum-rated jacket material will also need a different product.

Deciding Specification

The 100 MHz / 1 Gbps category rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable fits the network plan. If the infrastructure demands Cat6 or Cat6a performance, this Cat5e assembly will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

How do I know the 50 FT length will reach my router without excess slack?

The cable measures 50 FT end to end, so measure the path from your device to the router or switch and add a little extra for routing around corners; the snagless boots keep the connectors from catching while you pull it through.

What does the 1 Gbps rating mean when I plug this into my gigabit switch?

The 1 Gbps figure is the maximum throughput the Cat5e specification supports; with a 100 MHz bandwidth and 24 AWG stranded copper conductors you will see full gigabit speeds on any 10/100/1000 Base-T port.

Will the RJ45 connectors fit the ports on my VOIP phone and network media player?

Yes — the universal RJ45 plugs are wired to the standard Cat5e pinout and the gold‑plated contacts work with any device that has a regular Ethernet jack, including VOIP phones, media players, servers and routers.
