Ready for Fast Ethernet networks

This 10 ft Cat5e patch cable is built for reliable Fast Ethernet connections and includes Power-over-Ethernet capability. The gray jacket and coloured hoods make departmental colour coding simple in office or home wiring runs.

Check your port speed and distance needs

Ensure the devices you are linking operate at Fast Ethernet rates and that a 10 ft run reaches between your hub and distribution panel without strain. The cable uses 24 AWG conductors, so confirm your equipment accepts standard RJ45 connectors before ordering.

Fits standard RJ45 ports

Moulded RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts seat securely in any compatible jack, while the 350 MHz tested performance keeps Near End Crosstalk well within Cat5e limits. The solid copper construction supports PoE loads, leaving your switch ports free for data traffic.

Questions about this item

Does the 10 ft Cat5e cable come with RJ45 connectors already attached or do I need to crimp my own?

The cable is a moulded patch cord with RJ45 connectors factory fitted on both ends so no crimping or separate connectors are required.

Should I choose the 24 AWG 10 ft version or a different gauge for a 350 MHz Fast Ethernet link?

The 24 AWG construction with 100 % copper conductors is the gauge supplied for this 10 ft Cat5e cable and meets the 350 MHz rating for Fast Ethernet.

What does the 50 micron gold contact rating mean when the cable is plugged into a switch port?

The 50 micron gold plating on the RJ45 contacts reduces oxidation and maintains low resistance for reliable Fast Ethernet throughput over the 10 ft run.
