Cat5e patch cable, 5 ft

This Cat5e patch cable measures five feet and uses RJ-45 male connectors at both ends. The red jacket is molded and snagless, with stranded conductors for flexible routing. It suits home or office networks that require a short, colour-coded link.

Installers needing a short, flexible link

The snagless boots and stranded wires make this cable easy to pull through tight spaces and around corners. Buyers who need longer runs, outdoor-rated jackets or shielded construction should look elsewhere.

Category 5e rating

The cable is rated Cat5e, which determines the maximum bandwidth and crosstalk performance for the link. That single rating decides whether the part matches the network speed required.

Questions about this item

What devices must already have RJ-45 ports to use this cable?

Any router, switch, modem, PC or console with a standard RJ-45 network jack will accept the cable’s male connectors on both ends.

Will the Cat 5E rating limit speed on a Gigabit switch I already own?

The cable supports up to 1 Gbps, matching the maximum throughput of a Gigabit Ethernet port on older switches.

How can I confirm the link is running at Gigabit after plugging it in?

Check the port LEDs on the switch or router; a steady amber or green light typically indicates a 1 Gbps connection.
