Ready for Gigabit structured cabling

This Category 5e patch cable is built for permanent links in data centres, office floors and industrial cabinets. It carries 1 Gbit/s Ethernet over four twisted pairs with SSTP shielding that resists alien crosstalk in dense bundles. The 3 ft length suits rack-to-patch-panel runs or desktop drops where slack must be minimised. Blue jacket colour codes the link for quick visual tracing.

Fits standard RJ-45 ports without adapters

Each end terminates in a moulded RJ-45 male plug that snaps into any 8P8C jack on switches, servers, wall outlets or IP cameras. The snagless boot protects the latch during dense-patch-panel changes, and the SSTP foil screen bonds to the plug shell for continuous grounding. No tooling, punch-down blocks or keystones are required — plug in and the link trains immediately.

Stable throughput on long-haul PoE runs

Shielded construction keeps insertion loss and return loss within TIA limits even when the cable carries PoE+ current continuously. The moulded strain relief prevents conductor fatigue at the plug after repeated re-seating in live racks. Temperature cycling in unconditioned ceiling spaces does not degrade the foil bond, so the link stays at negotiated speed without retraining.

Questions about this item

What maximum data rate does the Category 5e rating support?

The Category 5e rating supports up to 1 Gbps Ethernet speeds over the 3 ft length.

Does the cable run warm or draw noticeable power during continuous use?

As a passive copper cable it draws no power and produces no heat or noise during all-day operation.

Which devices must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends are standard RJ-45 male plugs, so each connected device needs a matching RJ-45 network port.
