1 ft Cat5e patch cable

This one-foot Cat5e patch cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors with 50 µm gold-plated contacts and unshielded twisted pairs rated for 350 MHz bandwidth. It is suited for short rack-to-panel links or desktop connections where a compact, standards-compliant cord is required. The snagless, colour-matched boots protect the latch during frequent moves.

UTP construction and strain relief

Unshielded twisted-pair design keeps the cable flexible for tight routing inside cabinets or along desk edges. The short-body plugs with 50 µm gold contacts reduce insertion loss compared with budget 10 µm alternatives. Snagless strain-relief boots prevent the latch from catching on adjacent cables, freeing up space in dense patch fields.

Low-profile thermal and power profile

Passive copper construction generates no heat and draws no power, so it adds nothing to a rack’s thermal load or a switch’s power budget. The PVC jacket meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C fire-safety requirements for in-wall or plenum-adjacent runs. Operation is completely silent under all network traffic conditions.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth limit applies when the 350 MHz cable runs at full load?

The cable is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth, which sets the maximum frequency it can carry under sustained use.

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper and UTP design run hot or draw extra power in continuous operation?

A passive 1 ft patch cable with 24 AWG stranded copper and UTP construction generates no heat and consumes no power of its own.

Which devices must already have RJ45 ports for this 1 ft Cat5e cable to connect them?

Both ends use standard RJ45 plugs, so each device needs an RJ45 Ethernet port — such as a router, switch, PC, or NAS.
