Monoprice 113122 Cat5e Ethernet Patch Cable 1.524 m Blue 24AWG 350MHz UTP Zeroboot Series

Cat5e patch cable for home and office

The Monoprice 113122 is a 1.524 metre Cat5e Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable wired networking. It uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and unshielded twisted pair construction to support up to 350MHz bandwidth. The blue UTP cable terminates in RJ45 connectors with 50µm gold-plated contacts for durable signal integrity. It suits home users and IT professionals who need a ready-made link for routers, switches or wall plates.

Check your port type and run length

Verify that your devices have standard RJ45 Ethernet ports before ordering. The 1.524 metre length fits short runs between a desk and a wall jack or between adjacent rack units; measure the exact path to confirm it reaches without tension. Because the cable is unshielded, avoid routing it parallel to power cables or fluorescent ballasts where electromagnetic interference could degrade performance. Ensure the 350MHz Category 5e rating matches the speed tier of your internet plan or local network equipment.

Zeroboot design and copper build quality

The Zeroboot Series removes the traditional bulky boot, leaving a low-profile plug that protects the retaining clip while easing insertion in dense patch panels or tight wall outlets. Stranded 24AWG pure bare copper conductors give the cable flexibility for frequent moves without work-hardening, and the 50µm gold plating on the contacts resists oxidation over long service life. The snagless clip guard prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during removal, reducing wear on both the plug and the port.
