Two-foot Cat5e patch cable for short runs

This Monoprice 9546 cable connects network devices over a 0.6096-metre span. It uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and 350MHz bandwidth to handle gigabit traffic. The flat UTP design suits tight routing behind desks or inside racks. Lifetime warranty coverage backs the build quality.

Verify port spacing and jack clearance

Measure the distance between your router, switch or panel ports to confirm a two-foot reach is sufficient. Ensure the RJ45 sockets accept standard boot profiles without interference from adjacent cables. The flat profile reduces bulk but still needs straight insertion depth at each end. Confirm your equipment uses standard eight-position modular jacks.

Snagless boots and gold contacts for daily handling

Colour-matched strain relief boots prevent the locking tabs from catching during moves or re-patching. Fifty-micron gold plating on the contacts resists oxidation through repeated insertions. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C fire-safety requirements for permanent installs. The short-body plug keeps the footprint compact in dense patch fields.

Questions about this item

Does the 2 ft black Cat5e cable come ready to plug in or do I need separate RJ45 connectors?

The cable arrives with RJ45 plugs already crimped on both ends and gold-plated 50m contacts, so no extra connectors are required.

Should I choose the 24 AWG or 30 AWG version for a short 2 ft patch lead?

The product lists 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors; the 30 AWG figure appears only in the supplier title and does not describe this cable.

What does the 350 MHz bandwidth mean when the cable is installed in a gigabit network?

350 MHz exceeds the 100 MHz required for 1 Gbps Ethernet, giving ample headroom for Gigabit speeds over the 2 ft length.
