Wirepath WP-PC-CAT5E-1FT-YLW Cat5e Patch Cable 1ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-CAT5E-1FT-YLW is a Cat5e patch cable measuring 1 foot in length with a yellow jacket. Cat5e patch cables carry structured network data signals between wall jacks, patch panels, switches, and other network equipment. This short-run cable is well suited for tight rack and panel installations where a longer cable would create excess slack and poor cable management. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use these cables in both residential and light commercial structured wiring environments. The yellow jacket aids in color-coded port identification and circuit tracing in dense wiring closets and distribution frames.

This 1-foot Cat5e patch cable is intended for use in structured cabling installations where short jumper runs are required. Typical applications include connecting patch panels to network switches inside a rack or enclosure, or making short equipment-to-equipment connections at a network distribution point. The compact length makes it a standard item for organized rack builds in home networks, small offices, and multi-unit residential panels.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat5e patch cable for use with RJ45-terminated network ports, patch panels, and switches common to residential and light commercial structured wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat5e patch cable installation in structured wiring systems. Ensure the patch panel and switch ports are properly terminated before connecting patch cables. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling tension to maintain cable performance. Low-voltage cabling installations should comply with applicable local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards where required.
