AutomationDirect: Ethernet patch cables

Cat5e Ethernet patch cables in 8 colors and 3-50 ft. lengths are available from AutomationDirect.

Jul 8, 2010

The straight and crossover patch cables support up to 1000 Mbps. Designed to reduce the effects of electromagnetic interference by incorporating a single metal foil shield which wraps around the entire set of 4 twisted shielded pairs. RJ45 connectors are also shielded against electrical interference. 350 MHz cables exceed all Cat5e TIA/EIA standards, and reduce both impedance and structural return loss (SRL) when compared to standard 100 MHz cables.
