Cat5e patch cable for short runs

This two-foot blue cable connects two RJ45 ports for Fast Ethernet links. It is built for installers who need a verified Cat5e link between a switch and a patch panel or wall jack. The moulded boots and strain relief protect the terminations during repeated moves.

Near-end crosstalk controlled under load

The cable is tested so that Near End Crosstalk stays within Cat5e limits when the link carries continuous traffic. That means sustained throughput remains stable instead of degrading after a short burst. The unshielded twisted pairs keep the signal clean for the rated category without extra grounding work.

Moulded strain relief and colour code

Blue hoods let teams colour-code departments or VLANs at a glance. The integrated strain relief stops the cable from bending sharply at the plug, reducing broken conductors over time. Snagless moulding prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during dense patch-panel work.

Questions about this item

Does the moulded strain relief hold up when the cable runs warm near equipment all day?

The moulded construction and built-in strain relief are designed to withstand normal operating temperatures around active network gear.

What ports must my devices have to use this cable?

Both ends use standard RJ45 male connectors, so each device needs an RJ45 Ethernet port.

Will the blue colour coding match the Cat 5e patch cables I already have in my rack?

The cable jacket is blue; if your existing Cat 5e patch leads are also blue they will match visually.
