Black Box ELN25T-0050-MM CAT3 Telco Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box ELN25T-0050-MM is a 50-foot Category 3 (CAT3) Telco patch cable designed for reliable voice and data transmission in structured cabling environments. Its solid conductor construction ensures consistent performance for telephone systems and other low-speed data applications where signal integrity is paramount. This cable is suitable for connecting patch panels to distribution frames or for direct equipment connections within telecommunications closets or office spaces.
Compatibility
This CAT3 cable is compatible with standard RJ11 and RJ12 connectors and is intended for use with telecommunications equipment, PBX systems, voice-over-IP (VoIP) phones, and older data networking equipment that operates within CAT3 specifications. It is not suitable for high-speed Ethernet (100 Mbps or higher) which requires CAT5e or higher.
Installation Notes
The solid conductor construction of the ELN25T-0050-MM provides superior performance for its intended CAT3 applications but makes it less flexible than stranded cables. Avoid sharp bends or kinks during installation to maintain signal integrity. Ensure connections are made to appropriate CAT3-rated ports or equipment. The black color aids in differentiating it from other cable types in dense installations.
