This patch cord provides a reliable, terminated copper connection between network equipment, patch panels, and wall outlets. Category 5e performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10\/100 Ethernet applications. Licensed low-voltage technicians and network infrastructure installers typically specify this cord for data closets, server rooms, and horizontal cabling termination points where a factory-terminated, performance-verified patch cord is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis patch cord is suited for use in telecommunications rooms, equipment rooms, and work area connections as part of a structured cabling system. It is appropriate for both new installations and moves, adds, and changes within existing network infrastructure. The NK5EPC1BLY is sold as a single unit, making it practical for targeted replacement or supplemental patching needs in active distribution frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory 5e performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10\/100BASE-T applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper conductor construction for standard structured cabling connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-terminated for consistent, tested performance out of the package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing single-unit procurement for specific patching needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style patch cord for use in Category 5e structured cabling systems with standard RJ45 patch panels, keystone jacks, and network equipment ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Patch cords should not be kinked, sharply bent, or routed under tension, as this degrades Category 5e signal performance. Verify patch panel and equipment port compatibility before seating connectors. No power shutdown is required for patch cord replacement, but network impact should be coordinated with the site administrator before disconnecting active links.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Per Unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PANDUIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: NK5EPC1BLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PANDUIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563211489586,"sku":"NK5EPC1BLY","price":25.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7b533726ccda502088a9ae4c92d0cd52.jpg?v=1786493088","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/panduit-nk5epc1bly-cat5e-copper-patch-cord","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
