Cat5e Patch Cable with Molded RJ45 Connectors - 6 ft. - Gray
Product ID: M45PATCH6GR
Product Overview
The M45PAT6GR Cat5e Patch Cable (6 ft) meets or exceeds all Cat 5e specifications to ensure reliable Ethernet network connections. It features a durable gray PVC jacket that enables color-coding of network cable runs as needed.
To ensure long-lasting performance, this high-quality Cat5e patch cable features molded PVC strain relief that prevents the RJ45 connector termination points from bending at sharp angles, reducing the risk of cable damage and potential decrease in network performance.
Constructed with top-quality materials, this Cat5e Patch Cord delivers reliable performance and is backed by StarTech.com's Lifetime Warranty.
StarTech.com Cat5e cables are manufactured using high-quality copper conductors. Unlike many manufacturers who offer "cheaper" cables based on a copper-coated aluminum core, StarTech.com makes no compromises on quality to ensure customers receive top value and performance for their network cable investment.
This Cat 5e cable is constructed with 24 gauge copper wire, supporting a broad range of Ethernet applications such as Power over Ethernet (PoE). The high-quality copper wire easily sustains the power required for PoE applications, whereas inferior copper-coated aluminum cables may be subject to insufficient power delivery, heat buildup, equipment damage, and potentially fire.
This molded patch cable features high-quality connectors comprised of 50-micron gold, delivering optimum conductivity while eliminating signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion.
