Ready-to-use Cat 5e patch lead

This 15 ft yellow cable carries two RJ45 connectors on a 24 AWG UTP construction rated to 350 MHz. The snagless boots protect the locking tabs during frequent moves. It meets CM fire-rating requirements for in-wall runs. Plug it in and the link is live.

Ideal for short desktop or rack links

Home offices, small-business desks and patch-panel jumps under 15 ft are the sweet spot. Builders who need longer runs, outdoor burial grade or shielded pairs for noisy environments should look at something else. The fixed length also rules out custom-cut installations.

15 ft fixed length decides fit

Measure the exact path between your two ports before ordering. A cable that falls short cannot be extended without a coupler, and excess slack adds clutter. If the measured distance matches 15 ft this lead drops straight in.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the 350 MHz Cat 5E rating support for continuous data transfer?

The cable is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth, suitable for Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps over the full 15 ft length.

Does the 24 AWG UTP construction generate noticeable heat during all-day PoE or high-traffic use?

No, the 24 AWG copper conductors handle standard PoE and data loads without measurable temperature rise in typical indoor installations.

Will the snagless RJ45 connectors fit my existing keystone jacks and switch ports without adapters?

Yes, both ends use standard RJ45 plugs compatible with any Cat 5E or Cat 6 keystone, patch panel, router or switch port.
