Description

StarTech WIRC5ECMR 1000ft Cat5e CMR Blue Network Cable

Overview

The StarTech WIRC5ECMR is a 1000-foot spool of blue, CMR-rated Cat5e UTP cable designed for reliable data transmission up to 1000 Mbps. This cable is suitable for horizontal network runs in commercial buildings where a riser-rated cable is required, supporting applications like IP surveillance, VoIP, and standard data networking.

Compatibility

This Cat5e cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including switches, routers, firewalls, IP cameras, access control systems, and network video recorders (NVRs). It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet standards. For optimal performance and to achieve 1000 Mbps speeds, ensure connected devices and network infrastructure also support Cat5e or higher specifications.

Installation Notes

The cable features 24 AWG solid copper conductors for robust performance and a PVC jacket with a CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) fire rating, suitable for vertical runs between floors. The 350 MHz frequency range ensures it meets Cat5e specifications for reliable data transfer. Store and handle the cable to avoid kinks or damage to the conductors, which can degrade performance.
