10 ft Cat5e patch cable

This 10 ft Cat5e cable provides a wired Fast Ethernet link with Power-over-Ethernet support. The blue jacket and coloured hoods allow quick departmental identification. It suits offices, home labs or any rack where a single 10 ft run is required. Moulded strain relief protects the RJ45 ends during repeated insertion.

Build integration

The cable plugs directly into any RJ45 port on switches, routers, patch panels or PoE devices without extra adapters. Its 10 ft length reaches across a standard rack or desk while leaving slack for cable management. Coloured hoods free up documentation time by making circuit tracing visual rather than manual. No external power or configuration is needed for the link itself.

Sustained load behaviour

Category 5e construction keeps Near End Crosstalk within specification during continuous Fast Ethernet traffic. The moulded boots maintain consistent contact pressure so PoE current passes without intermittent drops. Performance remains stable for the full 10 ft run under constant data and power load.

Questions about this item

Will the 10 ft length work for a typical desk-to-switch run?

The cable is 10 ft long, which suits most desk-to-switch or patch-panel connections within a rack or office.

Does the Cat5e rating and molded construction keep heat or signal noise low during all-day PoE use?

Cat5e construction limits near-end crosstalk, and the molded boots protect the terminations, so heat and noise stay minimal during continuous Power-over-Ethernet operation.

What devices must I already have to use this patch cord?

You need two devices with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports — such as a computer, router, switch, or PoE injector — to plug each end into.
