International Connectors and Cable ICCABR5EYL Cat 5E UTP Solid Cable

Overview

The International Connectors and Cable ICCABR5EYL is a 1000 ft spool of yellow, Category 5E (Cat 5E) 350 MHz Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) solid cable. Designed for structured cabling systems, this 24 AWG, 4-pair cable is CMR (Communications Multipurpose Room) rated, making it suitable for in-wall and riser installations where fire safety codes are critical. It provides a reliable foundation for data networks, supporting speeds up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet), essential for IP surveillance systems requiring high bandwidth for multiple camera streams.

Compatibility

This ICCABR5EYL cable is compatible with standard Cat 5E and Cat 6 networking equipment, including patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 connectors. It supports all IEEE 802.3 standards up to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet), making it suitable for IP cameras, network switches, NVRs, and other network devices requiring reliable data transmission. For optimal performance, it is recommended to terminate with compatible Cat 5E connectors and ensure proper installation practices are followed.

Installation Notes

The cable features a solid conductor construction, which offers superior performance and durability over stranded wire for fixed installations. It is CMR rated for use in vertical pathways between floors. Avoid sharp bends or kinks, as these can degrade signal integrity. Maintain a bend radius of at least four times the cable diameter during installation. For runs exceeding 100 meters (328 ft), signal degradation may occur and repeaters or switches will be necessary.
