Cable Matters Support Team **Q: Gigabit speed capable and compliant?** A: Compliant for Cat4/Cat6 and handled Basic Gigabit. **Q: I’d like a compact patch cable like this for IT work. Would this work if it was retracted often?** A: The retractable portion worked fine and has not failed. The clip to hold the cable into the device is the weak link and on failed within a year of regular use. There are workarounds for repairing the clip using zip ties readily available on YouTube. My only complaint was that the cables are too short. **Q: Are the clear plastic end pieces small enough to insert into a landline phone jack?** A: RESPONSE FROM MANUFACTURER - CABLE MATTERS: No, this Retractable Ethernet Cable comes with standard RJ45 connectors, and it doesn't fit into a phone jack.

These cables have been working great the past few weeks on travel! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as intended. *by A***W on June 16, 2016* Feels a little flimsy, but does the job. The cable itself is pretty thin, so I'm not sure how well it will hold up over time. The retracting works really well once fully extended. Great for travel when the wifi is too slow at the hotel. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cable Matters 2-Pack Retractable Ethernet Cable 3ft (Retractable Cat 5e Cable, Retractable Cat 5 Ethernet Cable, Cat5e Cable) Supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet - Cable Matters 8K 60Hz / 4K 120Hz Retractable HDMI Cable with HDR Support - 3.3 Feet --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/23713119-cable-matters-2-pack-retractable-ethernet-cable-3ft-retractable-cat](https://www.desertcart.be/products/23713119-cable-matters-2-pack-retractable-ethernet-cable-3ft-retractable-cat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
