VCOM International Ltd NP511-7-BLUE Cat 5E network ethernet cable 7 ft Blue

7 ft Cat 5E RJ45 patch cable

This seven-foot Cat 5E patch cable uses RJ45 connectors at both ends. The unshielded construction keeps the cable lightweight and easy to route through tight spaces. Its blue jacket helps identify the link in a crowded patch panel or desk setup. The moulded strain relief protects the termination points during repeated plugging and unplugging.

Home and small-office installers

The cable suits anyone linking a router, switch or wall outlet to a PC, printer or access point over a short run. Builders who need shielded cabling for high-interference environments should look at a different specification. Installers requiring longer runs or pre-terminated trunk lengths will need another product. The fixed seven-foot length cannot be adjusted on site.

Cat 5E unshielded rating

The single specification that decides fit is the Cat 5E unshielded rating, which supports standard gigabit Ethernet over short distances. No shielding means the cable is not intended for routes alongside power cables or industrial equipment. If the installation demands verified performance above the Cat 5E baseline, a higher-category or shielded cable is required.
