The JBX60181 1ft Cat5e Red UTP Ethernet Cable represents professional-grade networking connectivity in a compact, highly functional package. Designed for environments requiring short network runs, this cable delivers reliable gigabit-speed data transmission while maintaining signal integrity across its entire length. Key Features and Specifications: This Cat5e cable utilizes advanced construction with 99.95% oxygen-free copper conductors twisted at precise angles to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The 24AWG gauge provides optimal balance between flexibility and durability, while the 4.0mm outer diameter ensures compatibility with standard conduit and cable management systems. The snagless boot design prevents damage to RJ45 connector contacts during installation, reducing connection failures and maintenance costs. Performance and Compliance: With support for 1GB (1000 Mbps) data rates, this cable handles bandwidth-intensive applications including video conferencing, large file transfers, and VoIP communications. Manufactured in Vietnam, the United States, or China, the cable meets strict TIA/EIA Category 5e standards and complies with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directive 2002/95/EC, meeting global environmental regulations. Applications and Use Cases: The 1-foot length is ideal for patch panels, network equipment racks, server farms, and desktop network connections. Its vibrant red color aids in cable identification and organization within complex network installations. The UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) construction reduces EMI susceptibility while maintaining cost-effectiveness for standard commercial environments. Durability and Warranty: Riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing provides flame resistance and durability in commercial installations. The cable withstands operating temperatures from -20°C to +75°C (-4°F to 167°F), making it suitable for diverse environments. Every cable includes a lifetime limited warranty, demonstrating manufacturer confidence in product quality. Value Proposition: Available in custom lengths for project-specific needs, with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, this cable offers exceptional value for IT professionals, network administrators, and technology enthusiasts.
