3 ft Cat 5E patch cable

This 3.0 ft Cat 5E moulded patch cable uses 4 tight twisted pairs of 8 cores built to the CAT5e standard with RJ45 connectors on each end. A PVC jacket and HDPE core insulation give strong anti-ageing performance and lower signal loss for basic wired networking.

Home and small-office users needing a short link

It suits anyone connecting a PC, router or switch over a short distance where Cat 5E bandwidth is sufficient. Builders who need shielded cable, longer runs or higher category performance should look at something else.

Unshielded UTP construction with .4 CCA conductors

The single specification that decides fit is the unshielded UTP design using .4 CCA conductors, which limits use to environments without strong electromagnetic interference and to lengths within the Cat 5E distance rating.

Questions about this item

Will this 3.0 ft Cat 5E cable work with my older router and PC that only have RJ45 ports?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors on both ends match standard Ethernet ports on routers, switches and network cards regardless of their speed rating.

How can I verify the cable is performing correctly after I plug it in?

Check that the link lights on both ports illuminate and run a speed test; Cat 5E supports up to 1 Gbps over this 3.0 ft length.

What comes in the box and do I need any extra adapters or tools?

The box contains the single 3.0 ft black UTP patch cable with molded RJ45 plugs on both ends; no adapters or tools are required for a standard connection.
