Black Box 5ft CAT5e 350-MHz Ethernet Patch Cable (Orange)

The Black Box EVNSL89-0005 is a Category 5e patch cable that delivers reliable network connectivity between computers, switches, patch panels, and other Ethernet equipment. It measures five feet and includes a PVC jacket in bright orange, making the cable easy to trace in crowded racks.

Although the Cat5e standard calls for 100 MHz, this model is tested to 350 MHz, giving you extra headroom for Gigabit Ethernet, voice, video, and PoE traffic. That margin helps prevent unexpected slowdowns when the network grows busier.

The conductors use stranded 24 AWG copper, so the cable bends easily while still carrying power to devices such as access points, IP phones, or cameras. Each RJ45 plug has contacts plated with 50 micron gold to resist corrosion and keep signal loss low throughout the life of the cable.

A snagless boot covers the latch, protecting it when you thread the cable through cable managers, conduits, or behind furniture. Black Box rates the cable for 750 insertion and removal cycles, which is valuable in training rooms, labs, and other spaces where equipment is rearranged frequently.

Choose the EVNSL89-0005 when you need a patch lead that is five feet long, easy to spot, and built for dependable service in both home and business networks.
