Cat5e patch cable for Fast Ethernet

This 5 ft StarTech.com Cat5e UTP patch cable carries RJ-45 male connectors at both ends and is rated to 350 MHz. It follows the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard and supports Power-over-Ethernet. The moulded strain relief protects the terminations during repeated insertion.

Suits Fast Ethernet links and PoE devices

Installers connecting a workstation to a wall outlet or patching a hub to a distribution panel will find the length and moulded boots convenient. Networks that require Gigabit or higher throughput need a cable certified for those speeds, which this Cat5e product is not.

350 MHz bandwidth rating

The single specification that determines whether this cable meets a project requirement is its 350 MHz Category 5e rating, which qualifies it for Fast Ethernet and PoE but not for faster Ethernet standards.
