Description

Black Box EVNSL0172RD-0020 CAT5E 100-MHZ Stranded Ethernet Cable

Overview

The Black Box EVNSL0172RD-0020 is a 100 MHz, stranded CAT5E Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. This 1000-foot spool provides sufficient length for deploying network infrastructure in commercial buildings, data centers, or office environments where consistent connectivity is critical. Its stranded construction offers flexibility, making it suitable for patch cable applications or installations requiring frequent movement.

Compatibility

This CAT5E cable is compatible with standard Ethernet networking equipment, including switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and IP surveillance devices that utilize RJ45 connectors. It supports data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps and is suitable for 10/100 Base-T Ethernet networks. It is also backward compatible with legacy network speeds.

Installation Notes

For optimal performance and to maintain signal integrity, ensure proper termination using CAT5E-rated RJ45 connectors. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the cable's minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to prevent signal degradation. The stranded core is less suited for long, fixed runs compared to solid-core cable but excels in applications requiring flexibility.
