30 ft Cat5e cable for Gigabit runs

This 30 ft Cat5e patch cable is built for 350 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps Ethernet with Power over Ethernet support. The blue UTP construction suits home offices, small-business networks and any installer needing a dependable horizontal or patch link.

Molded Cat6 RJ45 ends simplify termination

Molded Cat6 RJ45 connectors protect the plug body from snagging and strain during pulls through conduit or cable trays. The boots lock securely into ports, reducing intermittent contact caused by vibration or accidental tugs in busy racks.

Verify length and category match your plan

Confirm the 30 ft reach covers the distance between your switch and endpoint without excess slack that blocks airflow. Ensure the existing infrastructure uses Cat5 or Cat5e components so the channel stays within the rated 350 MHz performance envelope.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the cable is delivering the rated 350MHz bandwidth after installation?

Connect it between two gigabit devices and run a speed test or file transfer; sustained 1 Gbps throughput confirms the 350MHz rating is being met.

What comes with the M45PATCH30BL and do I need any extra connectors?

The box contains the single 30 ft blue Cat5e patch cable with molded RJ45 plugs on both ends; no additional connectors or tools are required.

Should I choose this 30 ft version or a different length for my run?

Pick the 30 ft model when the distance between your switch and device is close to that length; avoid excess slack or stretching by matching the cable to the measured run.
