StarTech 20 ft Cat 5E UTP patch cable

This 20 ft Cat 5E UTP patch cable from StarTech carries RJ-45 male connectors at both ends for wired Ethernet links. Gray snag-less boots protect the locking tabs during frequent insertion and removal. The cable is built and tested to keep Near End Crosstalk within acceptable limits for reliable data transfer. It suits home offices, small-business networks or temporary patching jobs.

Ideal for fixed Cat 5E runs up to 20 ft

Builders who need a single 20 ft gray Cat 5E link with snag-less ends will find this cable a direct fit. Installers who require longer reach, shielded construction or a different jacket colour should look at other options. The fixed length and UTP design also mean it does not suit applications that demand field-termination or plenum rating.

20 ft fixed length with RJ-45 male ends

The decisive specification is the 20 ft overall length combined with RJ-45 male connectors on each end, which sets the maximum distance between two network ports without adding couplers or extra cable.

Questions about this item

Which length should I choose for a typical desk-to-switch run?

The cable is 20 ft long, so it covers most desk-to-switch distances without excess slack.

What real-world speed will I get from the Cat 5E rating?

Cat 5E is designed for Gigabit Ethernet links, and the tested Near End Crosstalk performance keeps errors low on a 20 ft run.

What does the RJ-45 connector cap in practice?

Each end uses an RJ-45 male plug with a snag-less hood that protects the latch during frequent insertion and removal.
