12 ft Cat5e patch cable

This Belkin A3L791-12-BLU cable provides a 12 ft Category 5e connection with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. The blue jacket identifies the link in a busy rack or desk setup. It is built for standard Gigabit Ethernet runs in home and small-office networks. No shielding is included, so keep the run away from strong electrical noise.

Replaces shorter or damaged Cat5e links

Use this cable when an existing patch lead is too short, has a broken latch or fails certification testing. The Category 5e rating supports Gigabit speeds, so the jump is worth it whenever a Cat5 or non-certified cable is limiting throughput. It does not add bandwidth beyond the Cat5e specification.

Handles typical desktop and switch connections

The 12 ft length comfortably reaches between a wall jack and a nearby switch or between stacked rack units. It runs out when the distance exceeds 12 ft or when shielded cabling is required for noisy environments. Buyers needing longer runs, outdoor rating or PoE+ power budgets should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 ft length reach my router from the desk?

The cable is 12 ft long with RJ-45 male plugs on both ends, so measure the route from your device to the router and add slack for corners.

Do I need a tool to connect the RJ-45 plugs?

No tool is required — each end is a pre-terminated RJ-45 male connector that clicks straight into a standard Ethernet port.

How often should I replace a Cat 5e patch cable?

The cable carries a lifetime warranty; replace it only if the jacket is kinked, the clip breaks, or you upgrade to a higher category.
