This Cat5e cable is compatible with standard Ethernet networks and devices supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps data rates. It is suitable for use with any network equipment featuring RJ-45 ports, including switches, routers, computers, IP cameras, and VoIP phones. Its 802.3bt compliance ensures compatibility with devices requiring high PoE power budgets.

Installation Notes

The cable features a stranded copper conductor construction, offering flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The CM-rated jacket is suitable for use in-wall or exposed within commercial buildings, adhering to fire safety standards. The snagless design of the RJ-45 connectors prevents damage to the locking tab during installation and removal.
