12 ft Cat5e Patch Cable

This Belkin A3L791-12-S cable connects network devices using RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is built to the Category 5e standard for structured wiring. The grey jacket measures twelve feet in length and weighs approximately 4.80 ounces. A lifetime limited warranty covers the assembly.

Home and office wired networking

It suits anyone linking a computer, router, switch or printer with a standard Ethernet port. Builders who need shielded cable, outdoor-rated jacket or Category 6 performance should look at something else. Installers requiring plenum-rated fire codes cannot use this cable either. The unshielded twisted-pair design is intended for general indoor patching only.

Category 5e rating

The cable carries a Cat5e classification, which determines the maximum signal bandwidth the link can support. That rating decides whether the part matches the network speed your equipment requires. Verify the category against your switch and NIC specifications before purchase. No other specification overrides this classification.

Questions about this item

Should I pick a 12 ft Category 5e patch cable or a different length for my desk run?

The 12 ft length suits typical desk-to-wall or desk-to-switch runs; choose a shorter cable if devices are closer to avoid slack, or a longer one only if the extra reach is truly needed.

What does the Category 5e rating deliver on a real network?

Category 5e supports up to 1 Gigabit per second over the full 12 ft distance, so the cable will not bottleneck a standard home or office Gigabit Ethernet link.

How do the RJ-45 connectors limit what I can plug this into?

Each end carries an RJ-45 male plug, so the cable fits any standard Ethernet port on routers, switches, PCs, or patch panels without adapters.
