50 ft Cat5e patch cable for Gigabit runs

This 50 ft Cat5e patch cable delivers a straightforward Gigabit Ethernet link for home offices, small businesses or temporary wiring jobs. The red jacket makes the run easy to spot in crowded racks or across floorboards. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs during repeated insertions.

UTP construction rated for 350 MHz and PoE

The unshielded twisted-pair design meets the 350 MHz bandwidth specification and carries Power over Ethernet without extra wiring. In normal indoor use the cable runs cool and silent because it carries only low-voltage data and PoE current. No external power supply or active electronics are involved.

Replaces shorter or damaged Cat5 and Cat5e cords

Swap this in when an existing patch lead is too short, has broken clips or fails certification testing. The jump is worth it whenever a 50 ft reach lets you route around obstacles instead of daisy-chaining shorter cables. Buyers who need shielded cable, outdoor rating or lengths beyond 50 ft should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 50 ft Cat5e cable without damaging the RJ45 connectors?

Press each snagless RJ45 plug straight into the port until the latch clicks; the moulded boot stops the tab from catching on adjacent cables, which is the step most people rush and break.

What maintenance or replacement will this Cat5e patch cable need over time?

Inspect the red jacket and snagless boots periodically for kinks or latch wear; replace the cable if the 350 MHz rated conductors show intermittent gigabit link errors.

What is the first performance limit I will hit on a sustained 1 Gbps PoE run at 50 ft?

The 350 MHz bandwidth ceiling of the Cat5e UTP construction governs maximum throughput before signal degradation appears.
