Ready for 10/100 Base-T networks

This Belkin Cat 5e patch cable connects computers, routers and switches in a Local Area Network. The 3 ft red UTP cable uses RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It is built for standard 10 and 100 Base-T Ethernet speeds.

Passive cable with no active cooling

The unshielded twisted-pair construction carries data without generating heat or audible noise. Power draw is limited to the negligible signal current supplied by the connected network ports. No external power adapter is required.

Gold-plated contacts and PowerSum testing

The 50-micron gold plating on each RJ45 pin reduces oxidation for a clean, clear transmission. PowerSum testing verifies the cable meets enhanced crosstalk performance for the Category 5e rating. The red jacket aids quick visual identification in a busy rack.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the RJ45 plugs on this 3 ft Cat 5e cable, and what step do people often miss?

Align the clip on each RJ45 connector with the port notch and push straight in until the latch clicks; the step many skip is verifying the click, because a loose fit drops packets on 10/100 Base-T links.

What part of this red patch cable will need replacement first under normal use?

The 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts and the latch tab wear first; repeated unplugging erodes the plating and can snap the clip, so plan to replace the cable when the latch no longer holds.

What limit appears first when this Cat 5e cable runs sustained 100 Base-T traffic?

The 100 Mbps bandwidth ceiling of the Cat 5e rating is reached before any signal-quality issue, since the PowerSum-tested 4-pair UTP construction meets the spec for the full 3 ft length.
