CAT5E Shielded Ethernet Patch Cable - Snagless Molded Boot This Cat5e shielded patch cable delivers clean, stable Gigabit connectivity even near power strips, PoE injectors, or other electrically noisy equipment. Featuring F/UTP foil shielding to block EMI/RFI interference, a snagless molded boot to protect the RJ-45 connector, and premium bare copper conductors for dependable high-speed performance in demanding environments. Ideal for server racks, busy offices, industrial settings, and any installation where electrical noise could interfere with network performance. Available in multiple lengths and color options for organized cable management. Key Features F/UTP foil shielding wraps twisted pairs to block EMI/RFI for error-free data transmission Snagless molded boot design protects RJ-45 clips from damage during installation and cable management. Premium bare copper conductors deliver maximum throughput and reliable signal integrity. 2.5GBase-T performance supports speeds up to 2.5 Gbps for demanding applications Durable PVC jacket resists kinks and everyday wear while remaining flexible. Interference-resistant design ideal for high-noise environments near power equipment Multiple lengths available for any networking configuration Color options for easy network organization and identification Plug-and-play convenience with T568B wiring standard Ideal Applications Server racks and data center connections PoE (Power over Ethernet) installations Industrial environments with electrical interference Office networks near power equipment Medical facilities requiring clean signals Audio/video production environments Factory and manufacturing floor networks Patch panels and network switch connections Router and modem connections in noisy environments Any high-EMI/RFI environment requiring shielded protection Technical Specifications Cable Type & Performance Category: Cat5e (Category 5 Enhanced) Shielding Type: F/UTP (Foil/Unshielded Twisted Pair) Data Rate: Supports up to 2.5GBase-T (2.5 Gbps) Wiring Standard: T568B EMI/RFI Protection: Foil-wrapped pairs Physical Construction Conductor Material: Bare copper, stranded Conductor Gauge: 26 AWG Outer Jacket Material: PVC (Indoor rated) Outer Diameter: 6.0 ± 0.2 mm Boot Type: Snagless molded design Connectors Connector Type: RJ-45 (8P8C) male, shielded, on both ends Boot Protection: Snagless molded tab protects the clip Compliance & Rating Indoor rated (PVC jacket) RoHS compliant Installation Notes This Cat5e shielded patch cable is designed for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI) could degrade network performance. The F/UTP foil shielding wraps each twisted pair, creating a barrier that blocks external interference from sources like power cables, motors, fluorescent lighting, and PoE equipment. The snagless boot design is particularly valuable in high-density server rack installations, where cables are frequently moved or reorganized, helping prevent the fragile RJ-45 locking tab from breaking. The stranded bare-copper construction provides greater flexibility for easier routing than solid-core cables. Important: For optimal shielding effectiveness, ensure that both connected devices (switches, routers, etc.) have shielded RJ-45 ports. The shielding must have a continuous ground path from end to end. If connecting to unshielded equipment, the cable will still function but shielding benefits may be reduced. The 26 AWG gauge provides excellent flexibility for patch cable applications while maintaining signal integrity. Multiple color options help maintain organization in complex network installations, allowing you to designate different colors for different purposes or to distinguish shielded from unshielded runs visually.
