Description

StarTech WIR5ECMRWH 1000ft Cat5e CMR White Network Cable

Overview

The StarTech WIR5ECMRWH is a 1000-foot spool of white, CMR-rated Cat5e UTP cable designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and residential network installations. Its solid copper conductors support 10/100/1000Mbps network speeds up to 350 MHz, making it suitable for demanding applications like IP surveillance, VoIP, and high-speed data transfer. The CMR (Communications Multipurpose Resin) rating indicates it meets fire safety standards for use within walls and between floors in riser pathways, a critical requirement for building code compliance in many jurisdictions. This cable is engineered to minimize signal degradation and interference, ensuring consistent performance for your network infrastructure.

Compatibility

This StarTech WIR5ECMRWH cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: network switches, routers, IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), VoIP phones, and wireless access points. It supports all standard Ethernet protocols up to Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T). For optimal performance, pair with Cat5e or higher-rated patch panels and connectors.

Installation Notes

The cable features 24 AWG solid copper conductors, providing superior performance and reliability compared to stranded copper for longer runs. The PVC jacket offers durability for in-wall installations. Ensure proper termination techniques are used with compatible RJ45 connectors and tools to maintain signal integrity and achieve rated network speeds. The CMR rating signifies suitability for in-wall and riser installations, but always consult local building codes for specific requirements.
