Overview

This 1-foot blue Cat5e patch cable ensures reliable, high-speed Ethernet connectivity for short-run applications. It's designed for environments where precise cable management is critical, such as within server racks or network closets, to connect network devices like switches, routers, or IP cameras. The RJ45PATCH1 model supports up to 1Gbps speeds, making it suitable for standard Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet deployments.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device utilizing standard RJ-45 connectors, including most IP cameras, network switches, routers, patch panels, and computers. It supports 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, and 5Gbps network speeds, ensuring backward compatibility and future-proofing for higher bandwidth requirements on shorter runs.
