Shielded Cat5e patch cable

The Cables To Go 28690 is a shielded Category 5e patch cable terminated with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It is intended for installers and IT staff who need a short, factory-terminated link for Fast Ethernet or Gigabit segments. The 3 ft length suits patch-panel-to-switch runs or desktop connections inside a rack.

Sustained signal integrity

The shielded twisted-pair construction blocks electromagnetic interference that can degrade throughput on long cable runs or in electrically noisy environments. UL verification confirms the cable meets Cat 5e TIA/EIA limits for near-end crosstalk and return loss, so error rates stay low during continuous data, voice or video traffic.

Strain-relief boot and snagless tabs

A molded boot absorbs pulling force at the connector junction, reducing the chance of broken conductors when cables are rerouted. Snagless tabs protect the locking lever during frequent insertion and removal, keeping the latch functional in dense patch panels. The black jacket simplifies colour-coding in structured cabling schemes.

Questions about this item

Does the shielded Cat5e construction keep the cable cool and quiet during continuous all-day data transfers?

The shielded design protects high-speed network signals from noise and electromagnetic interference, meeting Cat5e TIA/EIA standards for stable all-day operation.

Which devices must already have RJ45 ports for this 3 ft patch cable to work?

Both endpoints need RJ45 female ports — such as a router, switch, PC, NAS, or IP camera — to accept the male RJ45 connectors on each end.

Will this Cat5e cable run reliably alongside older Cat5 cables still in my rack?

Yes, it meets or exceeds Cat5e standards for NEXT and return loss, so it interoperates with legacy Cat5 links while supporting Fast Ethernet and Gigabit speeds.
