Bosch 550257 Assembly Cable
Overview
The Bosch 550257 is a 3-foot (0.9-meter) Category 5e Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in IP-based surveillance deployments. This cable ensures stable network connectivity between IP cameras, NVRs, and network switches, minimizing data loss and packet jitter critical for real-time video streams. Its short length is ideal for direct connections in small enclosures or between adjacent rack-mounted equipment.
Compatibility
This Category 5e cable is compatible with all Bosch IP cameras, NVRs, and network switches that utilize standard RJ45 Ethernet connectors. It also interoperates with any third-party IP surveillance devices, network video recorders, or network infrastructure components adhering to Ethernet standards, including those requiring up to 1000BASE-T speeds. Use this cable for connecting devices within the Bosch MIC IP, AUTODOME IP, FLEXIDOME IP, and DINION IP camera families, as well as with Bosch NVRs and video recorders.
Installation Notes
Category 5e standards support data rates up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) over distances up to 100 meters. For optimal performance and to maintain signal integrity, ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending or crushing. The 3-foot length is suitable for short runs, preventing signal degradation that can occur with longer, unshielded cables in noisy electrical environments.
