Cat 5E UTP patch cable

This 25 ft Cat 5E cable uses four unshielded twisted pairs in a black PVC jacket. It terminates in RJ-45 male connectors on both ends and carries a CM fire rating. The snag-less boot design helps protect the locking tab during installation. It supports Fast Ethernet network connections.

Best for fixed Fast Ethernet links

Suitable for connecting computers, switches or routers in home or office runs where Cat 5E performance is specified. The 25 ft length fits typical desk-to-patch-panel or rack-to-rack distances. Installers who need shielded cable, plenum rating or Gigabit-certified components should look at a different cable.

25 ft length defines reach

The fixed 25 ft length determines whether the cable spans the intended path without excess slack or tension. Measure the exact route including vertical drops and cable-management loops before ordering.

Questions about this item

What connector type does this 25 ft cable use for both ends?

Both ends are terminated with RJ-45 male plugs, so it plugs directly into standard Ethernet ports on routers, switches, PCs and other network gear.

How do I avoid damaging the snag-less boots when routing the cable?

Pull the cable by the jacket, not the connector, and keep bends gentle; the moulded snag-less boots protect the latch tabs but can tear if yanked through tight gaps.

When should I replace this Cat 5E patch cable?

Replace it if the jacket shows cracks, the boots split, the latch tabs break off, or you experience intermittent link lights and packet loss on a known-good port.
