Network patch cable for LAN connections

The Belkin A3L791-05-PUR-S is a Category 5e patch cable designed to link devices within a Local Area Network. It features RJ45 male connectors on both ends and measures 5 ft in length. The purple jacket provides easy colour identification in structured cabling setups. It suits home offices, small businesses and anyone wiring a 10/100 Base-T network.

Replaces older Cat 5 or damaged patch leads

This cable upgrades a legacy Cat 5 link or swaps out a worn patch cord that causes intermittent connectivity. The Cat 5e specification supports 10/100 Base-T speeds, so the jump is worth it when existing wiring cannot sustain reliable 100 Mbps throughput. It is not for installers who need shielded cable for high-interference environments or runs longer than the supplied length.

Maintains steady 10/100 throughput under load

Under sustained network traffic the unshielded twisted-pair construction delivers consistent 10/100 Base-T performance without the signal drop-off seen with degraded cables. Snagless boots protect the connector tabs during repeated insertion and removal cycles. The 5 ft length keeps attenuation low for typical desk-to-switch or patch-panel connections. It does not carry a shield, so extreme EMI areas may still see errors.

Questions about this item

What connector type and length does this 5 ft purple cable use for a standard LAN port?

It has RJ45 male plugs on both ends and measures 5 ft end to end.

How do I plug in the snagless RJ45 connectors without damaging the latch?

Align the tab with the port slot, push straight in until you feel a click, and pull the boot — not the cable — to release.

When should I replace this Cat 5e patch cord?

Replace it if the jacket is kinked, the boot is torn, the latch no longer clicks, or you upgrade the network beyond 10/100 Base-T.
