## Long description

StarTech Cat5e Ethernet patch cable, 7 m long, white, designed for standard network patching and device interconnection. The cable uses U/UTP (commonly referred to as UTP) unshielded twisted-pair construction and supports Cat5e performance for typical Ethernet applications up to 100 Mbit/s. Both ends are fitted with snagless RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for consistent contact quality and reduced corrosion risk. Intended for connecting switches, routers, patch panels and desktop devices in home, office and data cabinet environments.
Advantages
The U/UTP unshielded design provides a cost-effective solution for structured cabling where shielding is not required. Gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and reduce oxidation, helping maintain a reliable signal over time. Snagless RJ-45 boots protect the connector tabs during installation and reduce the chance of accidental damage when routing the cable through tight spaces. The 7 m length offers flexibility for common patching runs without excess cable slack.
Suitable for
 Connecting desktop computers to switches or routers
 Patching connections on network patch panels
 Extending existing Cat5e links within offices or home networks
 Linking IP phones, printers and other networked devices
Key specifications
 Category: Cat5e performance
 Length: 7 m
 Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
 Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
 Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
 Color: White
 Boot style: Snagless (protective boot over connector tab)
 Typical application speed: up to 100 Mbit/s (standard Ethernet)
How to use
Route the StarTech Cat5e patch cable between the two network ports to be connected and insert the RJ-45 connectors firmly until the tab clicks into place. Ensure the cable is not twisted tightly or bent sharply at the connector ends; maintain gentle bends with a radius larger than the cable diameter. For patch panels, align the connector with the panel port and seat fully; for desktop devices, plug into the network interface of the computer, printer or switch. Remove by depressing the connector tab before pulling the plug out.
Usage recommendations
Use this Cat5e cable in environments where unshielded cabling is suitable and electromagnetic interference is minimal. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines or close to large motors and transformers. For installations requiring higher bandwidth or additional noise immunity, consider higher-category or shielded cable types.
