Monoprice Cat5e patch cable 20 ft

The Monoprice 104984 is a 20-foot Cat5e Ethernet patch cable built with 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and UTP construction. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50 µm gold-plated contacts and colour-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 runs up to 100 metres

This cable suits installers who need a manufactured patch lead for Gigabit Ethernet links within the 100-metre channel limit defined for Cat5e. Builders who require shielded cable, solid conductors for horizontal runs, or a higher category rating should choose a different product.

350 MHz bandwidth rating

The 350 MHz bandwidth specification determines the maximum signal frequency the cable can carry and therefore whether it supports the desired Ethernet speed over the installed length.

Questions about this item

Which devices need an RJ45 port to use this 20-foot Cat5e cable?

Any network device with a standard RJ45 jack — routers, switches, modems, PCs, NAS boxes, printers, or game consoles — will accept the plug directly.

Will the 350 MHz bandwidth and 24 AWG pure copper conductors work with older 10/100 Mbps gear I keep?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible; it will negotiate the highest speed both ends support without any configuration.

How can I confirm the link is running at the expected rate after I plug it in?

Check the port LEDs on your switch or router for gigabit indication, or open the adapter status in your OS to verify the negotiated connection speed.
