Cat5e patch cable for 1 Gbps networks

This five-foot Cat5e patch cable uses four-pair stranded UTP with moulded RJ45 connectors and integral strain relief. It is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and supports 1000Base-T gigabit Ethernet alongside 10/100Base-T, 100 Mbps TPDDI, 155 Mbps ATM, ISDN, voice and Token Ring applications.

Suitable for standard gigabit links.

The cable meets IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.5, ANSI/EIA/TIA 568, ISO/IEC 11801 and ETL category 5e draft 11 requirements. Builders needing 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps throughput, or Type 3 and Type 4 PoE power budgets, should select a Cat6 or higher specification instead.

350 MHz bandwidth enables 1 Gbps over 5 ft

The 350 MHz rating is the single figure that confirms the cable can carry gigabit Ethernet at this length. If the installation requires higher frequencies for multi-gigabit speeds, this Cat5e construction will not meet that need.

Questions about this item

Does the 5 ft Cat5e cable generate any heat or noise when carrying 1 Gbps traffic continuously?

No. A passive copper patch cord has no active components, so it produces zero heat and no audible noise at any supported speed.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends need an RJ45 jack — typical examples are a router, switch, PC network card, NAS, IP camera or any 10/100/1000Base-T equipment.

Will this Cat5e patch cord work reliably with older 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps gear I still use?

Yes. The cable meets Cat5e specs and supports 10Base-T, 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T, so legacy 10/100 devices connect without configuration.
