What this cable is and who it is for

This two-pack of Cat5e Ethernet patch cords measures 1.5 feet each and uses 8P8C RJ45 connectors on both ends. The cables are built with copper-clad aluminium conductors in a 568B wiring scheme and a flexible PVC jacket. They are rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and support data rates up to 1000 Mbps, making them suitable for Gigabit Ethernet links between a router, switch, PC, printer, IP camera, VoIP phone or gaming console.

Who should buy it and who should look elsewhere

Builders needing a short, cost-effective link for a desk, rack shelf or console will find the 1.5 ft length convenient and the dual pack handy for a primary and backup run. Installers who require shielded cable, solid-core conductors for in-wall runs, or lengths beyond a few feet should look elsewhere because these cords are unshielded, stranded and only offered in the short 1.5 ft size.

Installation notes and common issues

The moulded RJ45 plugs snap into any standard 8P8C port without tools, and the stranded wire bends easily around tight corners behind equipment. Because the conductors are copper-clad aluminium rather than solid copper, repeated re-termination or use with PoE loads near the maximum current can lead to higher resistance or broken strands, so treat the cables as permanent patch links rather than field-terminated runs.

Questions about this item

What port type must my router or switch have for these RJ45 cables to connect?

The cables use 8P8C RJ45 male plugs, so your router or switch needs standard RJ45 Ethernet ports to accept them.

Will these Cat5e cables still run at gigabit speeds if I plug them into older 100BASE-TX ports?

Yes, they are backward compatible with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, but the link will negotiate to the lower 100 Mbps speed of the older port.

How can I verify the 350 MHz bandwidth is actually delivering 1 Gbps after I plug them in?

Check the link lights on both devices — they should show a 1000 Mbps or gigabit connection, and a speed test should report throughput near 1000 Mbps.
