100 ft Cat 5E patch cable

This 100 ft Cat 5E patch cable uses moulded RJ-45 male connectors on both ends for wired network links. The black jacket and booted design protect the latch during repeated insertions. It is suited for home or office runs that need a single long segment.

Check connector type and length

Verify that both endpoints accept standard RJ-45 plugs before ordering. Ensure the 100 ft run does not exceed the distance limit for your intended network speed. Confirm that Cat 5E performance meets the bandwidth requirement of the connected equipment.

Thermals noise and power

Passive copper construction produces no heat, no fan noise and draws no electrical power. The moulded boots add strain relief without affecting signal integrity. The cable operates silently in any environment where a 100 ft patch lead is deployed.

Questions about this item

Does the Tripp Lite N002-100-BK include both RJ-45 connectors already attached, or do I need to buy plugs and crimp them myself?

Both ends come factory-terminated with RJ-45 male plugs and moulded boots, so the 100 ft cable is ready to plug in without extra parts or tools.

Should I choose this Cat 5E 350 MHz version or a different category for a 100 ft home network run?

This Cat 5E patch cable is rated to 350 MHz and built for 100 ft runs, matching the standard maximum segment length for twisted-pair Ethernet.

What does the 350 MHz rating mean when the cable is installed in a real network?

The 350 MHz bandwidth supports the signalling rates used by Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet over the full 100 ft distance.
