5ft Cat5e Patch Cable for Dense Installs

This 5-foot Cat5e patch cable uses 24AWG bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts to deliver a verified Gigabit Ethernet connection. The non-booted plug design targets high-density patch panels and keystone jacks where space is limited. It is tested to 350MHz and suits structured cabling in data centers, server rooms and offices.

Verify Port Spacing and Boot Clearance

Before ordering, confirm that your patch panel or keystone jack layout accepts non-booted RJ45 plugs without snagging on adjacent ports. Ensure the connected equipment supports Gigabit Ethernet over copper and that the 5-foot reach matches the intended rack or desk run. The cable is unshielded UTP, so assess local EMI sources if the run passes power gear.

Non-Booted Plug Changes Density and Airflow

Removing the molded boot lets the connector seat fully in tightly packed panels, improving airflow and simplifying cable management in dense bundles. The 24AWG bare copper pairs and gold-plated contacts maintain signal integrity at the rated 350MHz. RoHS compliance and UL & ETL verification cover safety and materials standards for commercial installs.

Questions about this item

Does the 5 ft Cat5e cable ship with any boots, clips or wall plates, or is it just the bare patch cord?

The cable is a non-booted patch cord only — RJ45 plugs on both ends with 50-micron gold contacts and 24AWG bare copper pairs. No boots, clips or mounting hardware are included.

The C5102 family lists several lengths and colors; which combination fits a short, high-density patch-panel run?

Choose the 5 ft black version — its non-booted plugs seat cleanly in crowded panels, the short length reduces slack, and the black jacket blends with standard rack cable management.

The spec says 350 MHz on a Cat5e cable rated for 100 MHz; what does that extra headroom do for a 1 Gbps link?

Testing to 350 MHz gives margin above the Cat5e baseline, so the 1000BASE-T signal stays clean over the full 5 ft even with tight bends or dense bundling in a patch panel.
