  • Product typeNetwork Cable
  • Overall length1 ft (0.3 m)
  • Product colorBlue
  • Key featuresCabling for category 5 (Cat5) and 5e (Cat5e) applications Le
  • Short 1 ft length keeps rack patching tidy
  • Cat5e 350 MHz rating supports 1 Gbps Ethernet
  • Molded connectors with integral strain relief protect the plug
  • PVC 4-pair stranded UTP meets IEEE 802.3 ab and TIA 568
  • Blue jacket simplifies cable identification in dense panels

Ideal for short patch connections

This one-foot Cat5e patch cable suits network racks, wall plates and desktop links where only a brief run is needed. Its blue PVC jacket and moulded RJ45 plugs make it easy to identify and route in crowded panels.

Limited to 1 Gbps and 100 m channel

The 350 MHz rating supports 1000Base-T, 100Base-TX, 10Base-T, 155 Mbps ATM and Token Ring, but the Cat5e standard caps usable bandwidth at 1 Gbps. Runs longer than 100 metres or 10 Gbps equipment require Cat6 or higher cabling.

Snaps in without tools; watch the latch

Moulded boots with integral strain relief protect the connector during repeated insertion, and the stranded conductors tolerate tight bends behind racks. The only common issue is a broken latch tab if the cable is yanked sideways instead of released properly.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 1 ft blue Cat5e cable or a different length for a short rack patch?

The 1 ft blue Cat5e patch cable is built for very short runs such as rack-to-panel links; choose a longer version only if the distance between ports exceeds one foot.

Will the 350 MHz rating actually deliver 1 Gbps on my switch ports?

The cable is rated for 350 MHz and supports 1000Base-T, so it will carry 1 Gbps Ethernet across its full 1 ft length when connected to gigabit ports.

Does the RJ45 connector meet the TIA 568 standard for Cat5e?

Yes, the molded RJ45 plugs comply with ANSI/EIA/TIA 568 and the cable meets Cat5e draft 11 requirements for 1000Base-T and 100Base-T networks.
