50 ft Cat5e UTP Patch Cable

This 50-foot Cat5e patch cable provides a wired Ethernet link for home offices, small-business networks and temporary installations. It uses 24 AWG conductors in a four-pair UTP layout rated to 350 MHz and carries a CM fire rating for in-wall runs. The black jacket and snag-less boots protect the RJ-45 clips during repeated moves.

Suited for fixed Cat5e links.

Builders terminating Cat5e drops at patch panels, switches or wall plates will find the length and rating match the spec. Installers who need Cat6, Cat6a or shielded performance should select a different cable class. The CM rating covers general-purpose indoor use but does not meet plenum or riser requirements.

350 MHz Cat5e rating defines the bandwidth ceiling

The cable is specified at 350 MHz, which sets the maximum frequency the link can carry under the Cat5e standard. That figure determines whether the run supports the desired Ethernet speed class; no higher frequency rating is claimed for this part.

Questions about this item

Will the CM‑rated jacket and 24 AWG conductors handle the heat inside a crowded rack that runs continuously?

The cable carries a CM fire rating and uses 24 AWG copper pairs, both suited for general indoor runs where equipment operates around the clock.

What devices must already have RJ‑45 ports for this cable to plug straight in?

Each end terminates in an RJ‑45 male connector, so the two pieces of equipment you are linking — such as a router, switch, patch panel or network card — need matching RJ‑45 jacks.

Can the snag‑less boots and 50 ft length be managed alongside shorter patch cords in the same panel?

The snag‑less boots protect the release tabs during dense installs, and the 50 ft reach lets you route the cable neatly beside shorter cords without excess slack.
