SatelliteSale Cat5e-Gray-3-Ft network ethernet cable

SatelliteSale Cat5e 3 ft Ethernet Cable

This Cat5e patch cable uses RJ45 connectors on both ends to link computers, consoles, routers, switches and other network devices. It is rated for 100 MHz bandwidth and up to 1000 Mbps data transfer. The 3 ft grey cord has a round PVC jacket and gold-plated contacts for oxidation resistance. It suits home or office wiring where a short, reliable copper link is needed.

Ideal for short runs between nearby equipment

The 3 ft length works well for connecting a desktop to a wall jack, a console to a nearby router or a patch panel to a switch in the same rack. Buyers who need to span rooms, floors or longer cabinet distances should look at longer cables in the same series, which range from 1.5 ft up to 25 ft. This cable is shielded and ROHS compliant, but it does not meet Cat6 or higher performance grades.

Rated 100 MHz and 1000 Mbps over 3 ft

The cable’s published specifications are 100 MHz frequency bandwidth and a maximum data rate of 1000 Mbps. These figures determine whether the link can support the intended network speed, such as Gigabit Ethernet, over the given distance. Verify that the connected ports and the overall network design also operate at this performance level.
