25 ft Cat5e UTP patch cable

This 25 ft Cat5e UTP patch cable provides a wired Ethernet link between two RJ45 ports. It uses 24 AWG conductors arranged in four twisted pairs and is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth. The black jacket is CMG rated for general-purpose indoor runs. Molded strain relief protects each connector during repeated insertion.

Replaces shorter or lower-category links

Swapping a shorter cable for this 25 ft length lets you bridge greater distances without adding couplers that can degrade signal integrity. Moving up from Cat5 to Cat5e raises the rated bandwidth to 350 MHz and reduces crosstalk, which is worthwhile when Gigabit Ethernet is required. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring ensures compatibility with standard patch panels and switches.

Sustained throughput on long runs

At the full 25 ft length the cable maintains its 350 MHz rating, so Gigabit traffic stays stable during extended transfers. The CMG fire rating means the jacket resists flame spread in typical building pathways, supporting continuous operation in walls or ceilings. Molded boots prevent connector fatigue when cables remain plugged in for months.

Questions about this item

What clearance does the molded RJ45 boot need at the jack?

The molded boot adds roughly 25 mm beyond the plug body, so allow that depth behind the patch panel or wall plate.

Which wiring standard must the punch-down or keystone follow?

Both ends are pinned to TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B; terminating the other side to T568A would create a crossover link.

How often should the CMG-rated jacket be inspected in a plenum return path?

CMG is general-purpose only; if the cable ever passes through a plenum space, replace it with a CMP-rated run at the next maintenance window.
