The StarTech.com M45PATCH2BK is a 2-foot Category 5e (Cat5e) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable designed for establishing Fast Ethernet network connections. This cable features male RJ-45 connectors on both ends, suitable for connecting network devices, distribution panels, and workstations. It is constructed with 24 AWG copper wire, supporting a range of Ethernet applications including Power over Ethernet (PoE) by sustaining necessary power delivery. The cable's design incorporates molded PVC strain relief to mitigate cable damage from sharp bends at the RJ45 connector termination points, aiming to maintain network performance and cable longevity. Its 50-micron gold connectors are intended to provide optimum conductivity and resist signal loss caused by oxidation or corrosion. The black PVC jacket allows for network cable run color coding. This product is suitable for IT professionals and businesses requiring reliable, standard-compliant network cabling for their infrastructure.
The M45PATCH2BKCat5e Patch Cable (2 ft) meets or exceeds all Cat 5e specifications to ensure reliable Ethernet network connections, and features a durable black PVC jacket that enables you to color code your 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, which could decrease network performance.
Constructed of only top quality materials, this Cat5e Patch Cord delivers reliable performance and is backed by our Lifetime Warranty.
100% Copper - a better value
StarTech.com Cat5e cables are manufactured using high-quality copper conductors. While many cable manufacturers offer a "cheaper" cable, based on a copper-coated aluminum core, we make no compromises on quality to ensure you receive top value and performance for your network cable investment.
24 AWG Wire
This Cat 5e cable is constructed with 24 gauge copper wire, to support a broad range of Ethernet applications such as Power over Ethernet (PoE). Because we use a high quality copper wire, our cables easily sustain the power required for Power over Ethernet applications, whereas the inferior quality offered by copper-coated aluminum cables may be subject to insufficient power delivery, heat buildup, equipment damage and potentially, fire.
50-micron Gold Connectors
This molded patch cable offers high quality connectors comprised of 50-micron gold, to deliver optimum conductivity while eliminating signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion.
