Dense-Patch Gigabit Link

This five-foot Cat5e patch cable uses a non-booted RJ45 plug so it seats cleanly in crowded patch panels and keystone jacks while improving airflow. It is built with 24AWG bare-copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts, tested to 350MHz and rated for 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet.

Installers in Tight Racks

The slim, boot-free connector suits technicians who need to add or re-route links in fully populated panels without wrestling bulky boots. Buyers who require shielded cable for noisy industrial runs or who need longer reach for cross-building links should choose a different construction.

Non-Booted Connector Decides Fit

The defining spec is the non-booted RJ45 plug, which determines whether the cable will physically fit and stay manageable in high-density patching environments. If your installation has generous clearance or you prefer the strain relief of a molded boot, this cable is not the right choice.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the non-booted RJ45 plug need in a high-density patch panel?

The non-booted design removes the molded boot so the 8P8C plug seats flush in tightly packed panels and keystone jacks, improving airflow and cable management.

What is the correct way to seat the non-booted RJ45 connector so the latch engages?

Push the plug straight in until the latch clicks; because there is no boot, do not rock or angle the connector, which can bend the 50-micron gold-plated contacts.

When should the cable be replaced if used for PoE devices in a data center?

Inspect the 24AWG bare copper pairs and gold-plated contacts periodically; replace if the jacket shows wear, the latch fails to hold, or Gigabit link errors appear on 1000BASE-T gear.
