Description

StarTech WIR5ECMPGRY 1000 ft Cat5e CMP Gray UTP Cable

Overview

The StarTech WIR5ECMPGRY is a 1000-foot spool of gray, plenum-rated (CMP) Category 5e Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. Designed for 1000 Mbps network speeds, this cable utilizes solid copper conductors to ensure signal integrity and minimize attenuation over longer runs, making it suitable for commercial installations where network performance and reliability are critical. The CMP rating signifies its suitability for use in air-handling spaces, a common requirement in modern office buildings and data centers.

Compatibility

This Cat5e cable is backward compatible with Cat5 standards and supports all network devices requiring Ethernet connectivity, including IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), switches, routers, and workstations. It adheres to the ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standard, ensuring interoperability with compliant networking equipment from all major manufacturers.

Installation Notes

The cable features 24 AWG solid copper conductors, providing a robust connection for 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet. Its plenum (CMP) fire rating allows for installation in air-handling plenums without requiring a conduit, simplifying installation and reducing material costs in commercial environments. The 1000 ft length is ideal for large-scale deployments or for running cables through extensive building infrastructure.
