Cat5e Shielded Patch Cable: common questions
Do shielded patch cables need to be grounded?
Yes. A shield only drains noise when it is bonded end to end, so terminate into shielded jacks and a grounded patch panel or switch. An unbonded shield gives little benefit. For clean office and residential runs, unshielded (UTP) cable is simpler and cheaper.
When should I use shielded Cat5e instead of UTP?
Use shielded cable when the run shares space with power cable or passes near motors, lighting ballasts, VFDs or elevator equipment. For clean office and residential runs, unshielded Cat5e is cheaper and easier to dress.
InstallerParts CAT5E Shielded (FTP) Ethernet Patch Cable – Purple
Designed for environments with high electromagnetic interference, this CAT5E shielded patch cable uses Foil Twisted Pair (FTP) construction to block signal noise and reduce crosstalk. Built with 100% bare copper wire and gold-plated connectors for reliable, high-speed network performance.
- Shielded FTP Construction: Foil Twisted Pair shielding blocks EMI and reduces crosstalk — ideal for industrial, commercial, and high-interference environments.
- 100% Bare Copper Wire: No CCA (copper-clad aluminum). Pure copper wire ensures consistent signal quality and long-term durability.
- 50 Micron Gold-Plated RJ45 Plugs: Corrosion-resistant contacts for a stable, low-resistance connection.
- 1 Gbps Speed / 350 MHz Bandwidth: Supports high-speed data transfer for streaming, cloud storage, video conferencing, and server applications.
- Standards Compliant: Meets or exceeds TIA/EIA T-568B. UL/cUL Listed. RoHS compliant.
- 30-Day Returns: Return within 30 days of receipt with an RMA.
