Engineered for Quality and Durability
This CAT5e cable features 24 AWG solid core conductors made from high-quality Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA), offering a cost-effective solution for your networking needs. The unshielded twisted pair construction helps to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, ensuring a clean and stable signal. The durable grey PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) jacket provides protection and flexibility, making it easy to route and install. This solid core cable is designed for long-lasting performance in fixed, in-wall, or under-floor installations.
Versatile and Easy to Use
Supplied in a convenient 500-meter roll, this cable is easy to store and dispense, allowing you to cut custom lengths for each installation, reducing waste and saving money. The grey color provides a neutral and professional look for your wiring projects. While this CCA cable is perfect for data transmission, it is important to note that for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, a solid copper cable is recommended to ensure sufficient power delivery.
