3FT 24 AWG Bare Copper, Slim Snag-Free Boots, 350MHz CAT5E Performance, Gold-Plated RJ-45, UL Listed Flexible UTP Jacket, CAT6E Compatible
Features:
Reliable 3FT Blue Cat5E Patch Cable for Network Connections
The CP Tech C5E-BL-03-M is a 3-foot Cat5E patch cable designed to deliver fast and dependable Ethernet connectivity for your networking gear. This cable supports performance up to 350MHz, making it ideal for home offices, business networks, server racks, and switch installations. With snag-free molded boots and 50-micron gold-plated contacts, it ensures secure, long-lasting connections with minimal signal loss.
Built with Pure Copper for Optimal Data Transmission
Unlike copper-clad alternatives, this patch cable is constructed using 24 AWG stranded bare copper wire across all four twisted pairs. This results in improved conductivity, reduced crosstalk, and more stable signal transfer—especially important in busy network environments with multiple connected devices or longer patch runs.
Snag-Free Slim Boot Design Simplifies Cable Routing
Equipped with slim molded snagless boots, this cable is easy to route through tight spaces like patch panels, wall plates, and cable managers. The snag-free design prevents connector latch damage while making the cable easier to plug and unplug during frequent equipment changes or cable reorganization.
Supports Compatibility with Both CAT5E and CAT6E Systems
While it’s optimized for Cat5E networks up to 350MHz, this cable is also tested for compatibility in Cat6E environments rated up to 550MHz. This ensures dependable performance for both legacy and modern systems, allowing you to standardize cable stock across various installations without sacrificing network speed or stability.
Gold-Plated Contacts Improve Durability and Conductivity
The RJ-45 modular plugs feature 50-micron gold plating on the contact surfaces, providing corrosion resistance and better electrical performance. This helps maintain a consistent connection even after repeated insertions, a crucial feature for devices like switches, routers, and patch panels that undergo frequent repatching.
Flexible Jacket and UL-Listed Safety Compliance
A soft and flexible jacket simplifies cable handling while meeting UL listing standards for safety. The cable is unshielded (UTP), making it lightweight and easy to manage in overhead trays, rack bundles, or behind workstations. Its compact construction provides durability without unnecessary bulk.
