Overview

Cat5 Cable is used in network applications such as 10Base-T, 100Base-T, Ethernet technology to 100 meters (328 feet). They perform at high-data transfer rates. These cables deliver improved performance over standard Cat3 and Cat4 cables. Our Cat5 Cables are composed of 4 pairs 24 AWG stranded conductors with PVC jackets. Conductors are wired to gold plated RJ45 plugs in accordance with the TIA/EIA 568B standard (Telephone Industry Association/ Electronics Industry Association.) Available in nine colors. Boots match cable color.

While Cat5 may function at some level in a Gigabit Ethernet, the performance is below standard during high-data transfer applications. Cat5e cable has been designed specifically for applications utilizing a 1000Base-T switch (also called Gigabit Ethernet).

  • Used to connect your network card to a 10/100Base-T hub or switch.
  • Category5 UTP cable. 24 AWG, gold plated 8x8 (RJ45) plugs.
  • Patch cables & boots are the same color; boots are snagless.
  • Patch Cables have stranded copper conductors for flexibility - great for frequent changes that occur at the wall outlet or patch panel.
