Cat 5E patch cable for short runs

This five-foot green patch cable connects network devices with RJ-45 male plugs on each end. Molded snagless boots protect the latch during repeated insertion and removal. It is built to Cat 5E performance levels for standard Ethernet links. The cable is new and sold as a single unit.

Suits tight rack or desk connections

Installers patching switches, patch panels or wall plates in confined spaces will appreciate the short length and snagless design. Builders needing longer horizontal runs, outdoor rating, shielded construction or bulk reels should choose a different cable type. The green jacket aids colour-coded cable management.

Five-foot length determines reach

At exactly five feet this cable only spans short distances between adjacent equipment. Measure the required path before ordering because the fixed length cannot be extended or shortened. No other specification overrides this physical constraint for the intended link.

Questions about this item

Will the 5 ft Cat 5E cable reach from my wall jack to an older router without strain?

At five feet the green patch cord spans a typical desk-to-router gap; the snagless moulded boots protect the RJ-45 clips when you route it around legacy equipment.

How can I confirm the cable is passing data correctly after I plug it in?

Watch for blinking link lights on both RJ-45 ends and run a ping test; a steady connection with no packet loss shows the Cat 5E conductors are intact.

Does the single green cable come with any extra connectors or do I need to buy them separately?

The package contains one 5 ft Cat 5E UTP patch cable with RJ-45 male plugs on both ends; no additional couplers or tools are included.
