Black Box EVNSL081A-1000 CAT5E Bulk Cable
Overview
The Black Box EVNSL081A-1000 is a 1000-foot spool of Category 5e bulk Ethernet cable designed for structured cabling installations. This stranded, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable features a CM (Communications Multipurpose) rated PVC jacket in blue, suitable for in-wall and between-floor installations where plenum-rated cable is not required. It supports data rates up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) and frequencies up to 350 MHz, ensuring robust performance for IP surveillance systems, network infrastructure, and other data transmission needs.
Compatibility
This CAT5E cable is compatible with all standard RJ45 connectors and network devices that adhere to the Ethernet standards, including Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, IP cameras, and network video recorders (NVRs). It is suitable for use with any network equipment requiring CAT5E performance specifications.
Installation Notes
The cable is supplied on a 1000-foot spool for efficient deployment. The stranded copper conductors offer flexibility, making it easier to pull and terminate in tight spaces or complex cable runs. Ensure proper termination techniques are used with compatible RJ45 connectors and a punch-down tool to maintain signal integrity and achieve optimal performance. The CM-rated jacket provides a balance of flexibility and durability for general-purpose indoor installations.
