Product identity

The Tripp Lite N001-003-RD is a Cat 5E patch cable built with stranded conductors and a snagless, molded boot design. It measures three feet in length and uses a red jacket for easy colour coding in network racks or at the desk.

Who this suits

Installers who need a short, flexible link for patch panels, switches or workstation drops will appreciate the booted connectors that protect the latch during frequent changes. Buyers who need longer runs, in-wall rated jackets or higher category performance should look at other options.

Deciding specification

The cable is rated to 350 MHz and terminated with one RJ-45 male connector at each end, making it the correct choice when a Cat 5E patch lead of this exact length and connector type is required.

Questions about this item

Does the 3 ft Cat 5E length limit bandwidth under sustained use?

The cable is rated for 350 MHz bandwidth at its full 3 ft length, so sustained throughput stays within the Cat 5E specification.

Does the booted, snagless moulded design trap heat when the link runs all day?

The moulded boots and snagless tabs protect the RJ-45 connectors physically; they do not generate or trap measurable heat during continuous operation.

What devices must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends use standard RJ-45 male connectors, so each device — router, switch, PC or patch panel — needs an RJ-45 female jack.
