Tripp Lite Cat5e 350 MHz Snagless Molded (UTP) Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, Yellow, 5ft. (1.52 m)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N001-005-YW is a Cat5e Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable Gigabit network speeds with a bandwidth of 350 MHz. Its bright yellow jacket makes it easy to identify among other cables, which is especially useful in busy racks or office environments. At five feet long, this cable is perfect for short connections between devices like switches, routers, or patch panels, helping to maintain a neat and organized setup.

Equipped with snagless RJ45 connectors featuring integral strain relief, the cable protects the latch from damage during installation or removal. The four pairs of stranded unshielded twisted pair (UTP) conductors inside a flexible PVC jacket ensure durability and reduce signal interference, supporting smooth data transfers for everyday network tasks.
