C2G 10ft (3m) Cat5e Snagless Shielded (STP) Ethernet Network Patch Cable, Blue

The C2G 27256 is a 10 foot Cat5e Ethernet patch cable that introduces full shielding to protect network traffic from electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference. Built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors inside an F/UTP design, it maintains clean signal integrity even when it runs alongside fluorescent lighting, machinery, or other sources of noise. A PVC jacket built for durability keeps the cable flexible during tight pulls, while a molded boot covers the RJ45 latch to prevent snags when routing through conduit or behind desks.

The blue jacket makes port identification easy in crowded racks or patch panels, and the 6 millimeter diameter fits standard cable management clips and organizers. Whether you manage switches in an office, connect control equipment on a factory floor, or tidy up a home media closet, this cable meets or exceeds Cat5e requirements for crosstalk and return loss so data moves reliably at Fast Ethernet and Gigabit speeds. For a fully shielded channel, pair it with C2G shielded patch panels and keystone jacks. The lifetime warranty provides added peace of mind for installers and IT staff who prefer to set a connection once and not worry about it again.
