Cat5e patch cable, 10-foot length

This Monoprice Cat5e Ethernet patch cable measures ten feet and uses unshielded twisted-pair construction with 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors. It is terminated with RJ45 connectors that have 50-micron gold-plated contacts and color-matched snagless strain-relief boots. The cable is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for communications wiring.

Home and office networks needing a short copper link

The cable suits desktop PCs, laptops, printers, routers and switches where a ten-foot run connects equipment to a wall jack or patch panel. Builders who need longer runs, shielded cable for noisy environments or higher-category performance for multi-gigabit links should select a different product.

350 MHz bandwidth rating

The 350 MHz bandwidth figure determines whether the cable supports the desired Ethernet speed over the installed length. Verify that this rating matches the switch, router or network interface specifications before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this 10 ft Cat5e cable work reliably with my older 100 Mbps router and switch ports?

Yes, the 350 MHz bandwidth and pure bare copper conductors support Gigabit speeds while remaining fully backward compatible with 10/100 Mbps equipment.

How can I verify the cable is performing correctly after I plug it in?

Check that the link LEDs on both ports light up at the expected speed — typically green or amber for Gigabit — and run a speed test to confirm throughput matches your plan.

Does the 103386 come with any extra connectors or do I need to buy RJ45 couplers separately?

The cable has RJ45 plugs on both ends with 50 µm gold-plated contacts and snagless boots; no additional connectors or couplers are included or required for a direct device-to-device link.
