  • Overall length3 ft (0.91 m)
  • Product colorLight Blue

Ready-to-use length and colour

This 3 ft light-blue patch cord arrives terminated with RJ45 plugs on both ends so it plugs straight into any Cat5e or Cat6 port. The shielded construction and gold-plated contacts are designed to reduce interference in typical home or office runs.

Capacity and headroom

Rated to 350 MHz bandwidth, the cable handles Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet traffic with margin for server, cloud and HD streaming workloads. The Cat 5 specification means 10 Gbit links are not supported, so longer high-speed runs will need a higher-category cable.

Upgrade context

It replaces worn or unshielded Cat5 leads where crosstalk or connector wear causes drop-outs. The jump is worth it when a short, certified cord with strain relief and CM-grade jacket restores reliable throughput without re-cabling the whole installation.

Questions about this item

Will the 24 AWG stranded conductors and RJ45 plugs fit my existing Cat5e wall jacks and router ports?

Yes, the 8P8C RJ45 connectors are backwards compatible with Cat5e and Fast Ethernet ports, and the 24 AWG stranded wire terminates to the 568B pinout used by standard jacks.

How can I verify the link is running at the rated 350 MHz bandwidth after I plug it in?

Check the link speed in your router or OS network status; a negotiated 1 Gbps connection confirms the cable is operating within its 350 MHz Cat5 specification.

Does the package include only the single 3 ft light-blue shielded patch cord, or are extra couplers or cable ties supplied?

You will receive one 3 ft Cat5 shielded cable with moulded strain-relief boots; no additional couplers, ties or accessories are included.
