Tripp Lite 14 ft Cat5e Snagless Cable

This 14-foot black Cat5e patch cable connects routers, switches, computers and other RJ45 devices in home and office networks. Snagless molded connectors protect the locking tabs during frequent moves or tight routing. The stranded UTP construction handles 350 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps data rates for standard Ethernet links. It suits anyone needing a reliable, ready-made patch lead up to 14 feet long.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, emits no noise and draws no power of its own. The PVC jacket and molded strain relief protect the four twisted pairs from physical stress without affecting signal quality. Performance stays consistent across the full 14 ft length at the rated 350 MHz. No active components mean there is nothing to overheat or fail electrically.

Upgrade Path and When It Matters

This cable replaces damaged, shorter or non-snagless Cat5e leads where a secure tab and 14 ft reach are required. It is not for runs exceeding 14 ft, for Cat6 or higher certified performance, or for outdoor, plenum or shielded installations. Buyers needing longer distances, higher bandwidth ratings or specialised fire ratings should select a different cable type.

Questions about this item

How do I install the N001-014-BK cable without damaging the locking tabs?

Press each RJ-45 connector firmly into the port until the snagless tab clicks; the molded boot shields the latch so it cannot catch on adjacent cables during insertion.

What maintenance will this Cat5e patch cable need over its lifetime?

No scheduled maintenance is required; inspect the molded strain relief and snagless boots periodically and replace the cable if the PVC jacket shows cuts or the latch tabs no longer hold.

What is the first performance limit reached on a sustained 1 Gbps link?

The 350 MHz bandwidth rating of the 4-pair stranded UTP construction sets the ceiling for continuous 1 Gbps throughput over the 14 ft length.
