Cat 5e 20 ft patch cable

This Cat 5e patch cable is a 20 ft blue lead terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is built for wired network links between routers, switches, computers and other Ethernet devices.

Suits fixed runs up to 20 ft; not for longer drops

The 20 ft length fits typical desk-to-wall or rack-to-patch-panel runs where a single cable spans the distance. Installers who need longer segments or different colour coding for cable management should look at other lengths or colours.

Cat 5e rating sets the performance ceiling

The Category 5e designation defines the transmission characteristics of this cable, determining the maximum data rates and bandwidth it can support over its 20 ft length.
