Product identity

The StarTech M45PATCH10BK is a 10 ft Category 5e patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is intended for anyone linking a computer, router, switch or other network device in a home or office.

Installation notes

The moulded boots and gold-plated contacts allow a straight push into any standard RJ-45 port without tools. The only common issue is exceeding the 10 ft reach, so measure the run before ordering.

Deciding specification

The cable is rated to the Cat 5e standard, which determines the maximum data rate and bandwidth the link can carry. Buyers who need higher performance than Cat 5e provides should choose a different category.
