Cat5e snagless patch cable, 7 ft
This Cat5e UTP patch cable carries Fast Ethernet signals over a 7 ft run. Both ends terminate in RJ45 male connectors with 50-micron gold contacts. The snagless boot protects the release tab during routing. Conductors are 24 AWG solid copper.
Installers needing a short, reliable horizontal link
Suited for patch-panel to switch jumps or workstation-to-wall-outlet drops where a 7 ft length fits the cable management plan. Not intended for runs that exceed the channel distance budget for the target speed, nor for environments that require shielded or outdoor-rated construction.
Cat5e rating for Fast Ethernet
The Category 5e designation confirms performance up to 100 MHz bandwidth, which supports Fast Ethernet (100 Mb/s) links. Buyers deploying Gigabit or faster speeds should verify that the complete channel meets the higher category requirement.

| Features | Network Cable Type: Snag-less StarTech Category 5e Patch cables are constructed with top quality components. The Strain relief prevents the cable from being bent at sharp angles at the connector to minimize the stress at the plug termination point. Coloured Hoods for departmental colour coding. StarTech Category 5e patch cables are carefully constructed and tested, to keep the Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) well within acceptable limits. Clip protector keeps the plug from snagging while routing the cable. |

Questions about this item
What standard does the Cat5e rating cap this cable at in practice?
The Cat5e rating limits practical throughput to Fast Ethernet speeds of 100 Mbps.
What physical clearance does the snagless boot need to fit?
The snagless boot adds a small collar around each RJ45 plug, so the port must accept a standard boot profile without catching on adjacent ports.
How is the cable installed and what step do people get wrong?
Align the tab, push until it clicks, and avoid forcing the boot past the latch; bending the cable sharply at the connector defeats the strain relief.
